Could Really Use Some Help With First Time Room Treatments
Nelson_de_Leon replied to TubeLover's topic in Immersive Audio
Your first reflection point consist of the nearest side wall immediately after your speaker. Next is the more or less the center of the side wall (between the sweet spot and speaker). A small glass mounted flat on that wall would help you locate that. If you could see the speakers while seated on the sweet spot, then that's your first reflection point. The ceiling also has first reflection points. I'm not a fan of carpets or floor treatment because our ears are accustomed to reflections from the hard floor. But that's just me. But I also advice to put a few absorbers on the ceiling as it gives a "spacious feeling". If you have a dead front wall, then you would probably want to combine diffusers and absorbers on your backwall. There is no one heneral rule for acoustic treatment especially when the n owner's preference sets in. Hehe! That I'm sure based on experience. For the bare walls left, you can use an assortment of diffusers. I'm a fan of curved diffusers and also a local seller (Philippines) so I would recommend that. It's simple and very coherent because of it's shape and evenness. Sent from my ASUS_Z012D using Tapatalk -

As a friend use to say, playing music on a untreated room is like running a Ferrari on ice. Sent from my ASUS_Z012D using Tapatalk -
Beginner: computer stored music to my speakers.

Using an external DAC may or may not make your system sound better. Your personal preference always comes into play. Sometimes it really doesn't sound better, it just sounds different. Sent from my ASUS_Z012D using Tapatalk -
How many bits, how fast, just how much resolution is enough?

It ends when the differences in resolution is not already audible to the listener. Sent from my ASUS_Z012D using Tapatalk
