We recently replaced our ceramic tile flooring in my two channel room with newer larger ceramic flooring that is less dated (per the "boss"). We also painted the room a color that mated better with the new flooring. I previously had an area rug in front of the speakers and a runner that matched the rug on the wall behind the system.
My wife decided the area rug needed to go. I was afraid that this was going to be a problem. I also removed the runner on the wall behind the system that matched the rug because the color was no longer harmonious. I was "allowed" to hang a large tapestry behind the system in a color that worked.
I was expecting the sound to be too lively and maybe tipped up, but it sounds fine. It is more lively without the rug, but isn't a big deal and actually may sound a tad more exciting.
Happy camper in a lively room.
