RE: Demensions of a listening Room

Posted by PAR on April 15, 2017 at 17:01:07:

I have a room of broadly speaking similar dimensions (9ft ceiling) but complicated by an open staircase to one side and the rear of the room (or listening space) narrowed into an L shape.

It is acoustically not of the best but I found that it was greatly assisted by some Acoustic Lenses (domesticated Helmhotz resonators). No longer available I am afraid but maybe some may come up from time to time on the used market (you will need at least three of them, one placed centrally behind and the others to the outside of the speakers). There used to be (and probably still are) some home build recipes for equivalents around on the web. Athough I appreciate that your situation may make this impractical. Picture shows left hand one.
