Home made absorption panels.....

I suppose, that you could also cut up an old comforter and fasten the pieces to 1/4" 3x3 ft. pieces of plywood. I may try that.

Something else that comes to mind, would be a large plant at both ref. points. Of course, that would diffuse the sound rather than absorb it. I don`t suppose the diffusion would be as good as absorption. Just guessing.

Try the plants. Diffusion can work as effectively as absorption, IMO. You can also hang rugs or wall tapestries.

Take a look at the virtual system of Audiogon member "Perfectionist" to see what can be done with rugs.

Thanks Tvad, Perfectionist has quite a set-up. My problem still remains with the sliding glass door with vertical metal venetion blinds.

I`ll be using a corner set-up per bobby p`s suggestion for my merlins that are on order. Using a corner placement, I`m not sure sonically what will be experienced yet. Or, for that matter, where the ref. points would be.

I wonder if anyone else has used this corner set-up and what if any sonic benefits were achieved?

Replacing the metal vertical blinds with fabric vertical blinds will be a good start, but I'm sure you've already considered this.

Yes, problem would be solved but it`s a rental.
