Room Acoustic Treatment with High WAF?


Curious to know if anyone out there knows of great looking acoustic treatments that even a wife could love... :) My room is LIVE! and needs a lot of help. I've been thinking of making some sound panels that look like "art" and hanging them on the wall... Is this effective at not only satisfying our significant others but curing the acoustic issues as well? I'd like to know if anyone has done this with much success and if anyone has suggestions. What are some suggested materials? Where can I find the materials?
Are there pre-made NICE looking acoustic panels? HELP!!

Also check out www.accousticsfirst.com for what I think are some cost effective solutions. They will make custom panel sizes and discuss other possibilities also-Good luck.
I have four large Tower Cube Traps that my wife finds pretty acceptable (try putting baskets of silk flowers on top, and she'll think it's a decorator "statement". Also, if your wife likes quilts or wall hangings, have her pick one out, and then have ASC (the tube trap folks) custom make a 1" thick panel to put behind it.
I bought a set(6)of demo RPGs level one (charcoal) from Audio Advisor. Not bad looking at all and not a bad price either(reg. $69.95, demos $39.95!!!).

Try getting your wife into participating in the decor...tell her how 'important' is her feedback.

I wish you the best.
