Re: HT acoustic treatments?


Mark.

The isolation stuff was an answer to the poster above my post - Salvasol (David).

Treatments on the side wall at the reflection points is good though there won't be any at 1' off the floor (unless you have hard floors). We usually start them about 2' and go up to about 6' for visible panels. I don't know where your seats are to know how much 'screen to just before seating' is.

You can run your tests with just the L and R and Sub as long as the rest of the room is pretty much done (carpet, seating, etc.) For the surrounds, their' location is not so much driven by smoothing response as it is proper placement for accurate surround recreation.
