Lord, if you listen to a movie in a room that has no carpet or wall coverings, it sucks. Once you add carpet, furniture, etc. it is night and day better. The same applies to bass traps and first reflection panels. There is something to be said about over treating a room, but if done right it gives you great results.
What kind of treatments normally on the walls? Just acoustical panels I assume?
Not trying to hijack, but it seems I may have an issue with the sub though in my room. Going to take some experimenting, but right now, it's not good
Is the point of a bass trap to mimize reflections back into the room and the cancellation of sound waves? I always figured they were just to reduce boominess, but if it's the former I think I am going to have to look into something. My walls are bare currently, but they are insulated behind, ceiling included, if that matters.
