Room Treatment: Whatcha Got?

As I learn (Bertrand Russel would say 'as I expand my ignorance') I'm developing a different question to ask of audiophile friends. [ought I say phriends? No!]

Now, instead of asking what gear they listen to, or if they like vinyl, I'm really interested in their room; is it treated, or not? And what technique(s) / how much time is invested in setting up?

That's it: despite the current cover of Stereophile, size no longer matters to me, neither do components at this point. I don't even care about CD / TT until I've learned what effort a listener has put into working the room.

What's your story?

How come this thread is not in the "acoustics" forum? Oh that's right, Audiogon needs an acoustics forum to ask these questions in. How about it ,lets see a raise of hands for an acoustics forum right here on Audiogon.

We have some really acoustically knowledgeable folks right here on Audiogon, such as Rives and Duke (just to name a few) amongst the manufacturers and a fair number of contributors who know a thing or two. Lets do it, a new Acoustics forum, who says yea? This is too important of a subject to be (continued to be) ignored.

Bob, I wouldn't be against doing it on A'gon but most of those guys, Ethan, Brian, etc., already have at least 1 forum to keep up with.

Acoustic Circle

Hi Dan, That may be true that there are other sites with acoustic forums, but we all know that Audiogon is the best audio site around and that its members deserves all questions answered with good info and not have to go elswhere to ask or receive great acoustic knowledge.

This is too important of a subject to ignore, especially if Audiogon wants to continue to be the best and most respected site on the net for audio discussion.

This is not the first question about acoustics here and they are usuallly lost in the speakers/general/etc forums. They deserve proper answers in a proper forum.
