Agreed. 1 on the wall behind the seating position will help. Other than that, I'd start with 4 panels (or more if budget allows) hung at 45 degrees straddling the wall/ceiling corner to form a triangle with the wall surfaces. Start with the front and back walls.
OK! Thanks. Budget's not a constraint as much as space and visual aesthetic concerns. I think I can mask the ceiling panels with some big hanging mobiles or something.

4 in a room that size plus 1-2 on the walls should make a good difference.
Bryan, so I understand your previous post, are you saying a better subwoofer is probably a lost cause because even the treated room will never support deep bass? Or are you saying I should do the room treatment before considering a subwoofer upgrade?

In this case the existing sub is so pathetic I'm inclined to get a better one so I can properly evaluate the effects of room treatment. I'm attracted to the Sunfire EQ, or something else with a notch filter to help reduce whatever boom is still left in the square room after treatment.
