RE: Building a room for my Magnepans

Posted by Roger Gustavsson on February 11, 2015 at 04:41:03:
I am slightly surprised to how much importance the dimensions of the room is given here. There are more aspects like the properties of the boundaries, the size of the, if it is sealed etc. I have not seen any serious acoustic designer paying a lot of attention to the golden ratio. Most important of all, the room should not be too small or too large. Where you want to place your speakers will also have to be taken into consideration while choosing the design of the walls. The more irregular is often better. I can see that there is a degree of connection to where we live. The USA seems to have different housing properties to the UK, Germany or Scandinavia. Not only the materials used in the houses but also the indoor decorating and the sizes of our rooms. Large open areas are very difficult acousticly but have been fashion for a while in Europe.
