I would like to share a concept that is not widely understood or even not formulated in mind of many audio people but something the has a tremendous importance to me personaly. The readers of my site know that I do not like the concept of dedicated ...

Romy, yes it is an interesting subject and one that I have thought quite a bit about although not directly from the angle from which you are approaching it.One of Macondos great strengths is narrow directivity from high frequencies all the way down t...

[quote user="RonyWeissman"]This is one of my favorite topics. [/quote]I completly share this sentiment.There is clearly nothing nearly as important as the listening room itself and having the possibility of building a listening room from scratch is ...

Collin,I am pleased that you found my suggestions worthwhile.
I approached the issue of your music room with two questions in mind:1- How to avoid the structural angle from interfering with the sound2- Would an enlarged room be worthwhile...

I never thought that it will be so much fun to demolish my listening room. Right after the Labor Day my contractor starts to rip up the carpet and lay down the quarter sawn parquet. I will be at Cape during the weekend, so I have preparing the room n...

JD's post contains several interesting tips and hints: talking of walls and floors is important like and possibly more than talking about a pleasant, cocooning space where to find themselves in music and reading and relaxed chatting with friends and ...

I recognized that I have tired for the last week like hell. Do not ask me what I got tired from – I will not be able to say. That whole moving, packing, unpacking this was too exhausting… The good thing is that I go an interesting room as a resul...

that old sails does just control <1khz reflections ... you need to control your mid bass n basic bass frequencies first. [/quote]

[quote user="Serge"]I will think about it. Romy, of course you know me. Use your little grey cells as Msr Poirot used to say.Initial thoughts: hunting HF reflections and damping them is generally not a good idea. It is like making a speaker cabinet c...

Well, I need to admit that with arriving Thomas and to a
degree with adopting Amy my relationship with my listening room have changed.
It is not the relationship change but the volume that listening room occupies in
my daily practice. I very much ...

Yes, I was thinking of take advantage of high ceilings, feeling the space above with midbass horns. A few days back I found a very interesting building. It is big factory from the beginning of the century converted into many lofts. The building has h...

I have a room in my house that I have no use and I kind of considering converting it to The Opera Room. Generally it might be consider video rooms but I have no interest to watch movies in there, which is regularly associated with video – I have a l...

[quote user="msaudio"]I also believe there is little wrong with your new room. Some electrical problems witch is common for new layouts and some light reflective material her and there with some good furniture witch you have been thanking about for a...

I am pretty happy with how high temperature handling is happening in my room. Not perfect but still pretty good. As Summer eventually came to New England and my room hit 85 some thoughts become to hatch and pop up in my head. I would like to share s...

I've managed to make my own room treatments thus far, all bass oriented and although some broadband absorption has been used the bulk is effective 30hz - 500hz. It is an architectural type of solution where I have a covered the front and side walls...

[quote user="Johan Dreyer"]I call this the "pulsating room effect" Here there is a sensation of the air in the room actually pulsating to the sound.This is not boom but a sense of sheer energy being transmitted.Unlike music simply being played way to...

I am a big room buffoon. I like to see and hear a room and I like to walk around and "test" it. Sounds dumb but sometimes I can sit in a room and dream about what could be done to it in terms of Sound. It started around the age of 20 so at the time I...

A guy visited me today and while I was playing to him some music an ides stroke me: how to make ULF channels invisible? I have given birth to a ridicules ides to make huge, 40hz, no-cheating horns in time-aligned position absolutely invisible in list...

I'm curious about how you set up your horns in the room.From photos it looks as if they are fairly close together, compared to the wide setting you suggested I try, while our room dimensions are fairly similar?When I started pushing the horns apart a...

[quote user="Romy the Cat"] I figure out that it is time and put some acoustic treatment on the walls and at some spot of ceiling. The 2” pyramids in white, 24” by 24” look very nice; in fact they almost work like abstract yuppie-ornamentation po...

[quote user="oxric"]Whilst as Romy points out, the room might well be on the small side, it has a very high ceiling (say 4.5 m) that in my mind always presents fabulous opportunities. [/quote] I have a second opinion about the size of the room. My in...

Looking at different properties and trying to in my mind to arrange the setting in my new listening room I have concluded the absolute minimum dimensions of the room. In case the midbass horns are NOT in the room, the room has over 12” or a cathe...

As I told you that side effect of my Video Room project turned out that I changed my mindset from hating that room and considering it as a worthless in the house to the sadden admiration of the room. No I do not watch videos in there but I just turn...

We have made a decision that we do go for the hardwood floors in listening room. We end up with unfinished quarter sawn red oak with Vermister" waterbase urethane. We will try to render the project in September.
This will imply to remove the w...

N-set, you have actually struck upon one of the difficulties of not being the designer and builder per se, only an actively interested commissioner of a bespoke system from a third party. I foresee logistical difficulties in building the system in a ...

[quote user="RF at Ona"]Finally, let me add a personal point of view. If you walk into a room and you are not really aware of its acoustics - it is probably a good room … [/quote]
It is not my observation. When you walk into a good room it clearly h...
