BTW, there are places that print on fabric. In some forum somewhere (think avs) a bunch of people printed movie posters, covered and framed their absorbers and hung them as pictures in their HTs. Now that's true movie art.

Thanks for all the tips. Of course, I was going for the completely lazy solution, but the acoustic panels do look nice and don't look that hard to whip up. The rear wall does have a spot for a panel; and I could lobby for heavier curtains all around.

Has anyone every done anything clever with a stone fireplace that is never used?

Also, the question was explorative, I may not need anything; I have never had speakers in this room so I may get lucky. Someone had mentioned a "clap test" somewhere along the line and when I did that I got nervous with the results. We'll see soon; the three weeks are up and I'm waiting on good shipping news from Axiom.

Ah Mr. rrlev, I thought the lights would be cool. I do like the way the framed fabric looks.

I just realized it's been 4 weeks since I ordered, not 3. What's the recent experience on how prompt Axiom's shipments out are (customs aside)? I have some experience, it's all been very prompt; but it's mostly not recent experience.

I would say a little slower than some of my other orders have gone out but I always opt for the ICW for the discount and everything has shipped before or by the allotted 21 business days.

I called Axiom and it looks like it's being held up by the amp that was part of the order. Arrgh - it's killing me!
