Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

Do you have any flexibility with the room dimensions? ...

There may be nothing wrong with 11'w x 16'l x 9'h but if you were able to use the magic Fibonacci ratio (1 : 1.618 : 2.618), you couldn't get much better than this as a basic room.

Re. the ceiling ... IMO the vaulted ceiling you are thinking of will deliver better sound than a flat 9' ceiling and if you can go to a peaked ceiling /\, that will sound even better (that's what I designed my "listening room" with, 22 years ago).

If you send me a PM with your email address, I'll send you an Excel s/sheet which originally came out of THX, which gives you graphical feedback in terms of the room nodes intrinsic to the selected dimensions. Then you can experiment.

Regards,

Andy
