When I saw that valley in the 2 to 4 KHz band, I knew there must be a pillow covering up a window.

Do you find that the colour of the room effects your listening? I ponder if a bright coloured room will make the speakers sound brighter? Trying to figure out what colour to paint my walls. I was thinking of a slightly blueish grey toned down 10% darker.
Now I wonder if for a music/movie room if you would still want to paint the ceiling and all the trim white? All white surfaces are just another source for light refection?

Color doesn't matter but temperature and humidity make a huge difference. So I discard anyone's blind listen tests that aren't conducted in an environmental chamber.

Hey Matt,

I think so long as the room is pleasing to be in the results will be positive towards listening/watching/hanging out in there. I dont think wall color and sound are linked in the brain, but who knows. We chose colors that will make the room less gloomy when were in our 4th month of being snow bound to the house. We wanted it to feel less basementy.

The paint in the room is suede finish and has zero sheen. We put it on the ceiling too.

Its too matchy right now, but the poly diffusers and wall treatments are about to change that.

Nope. Turned my father in law into one though.

A deal fell into my lap I couldnt refuse while I was deciding. But the company is nice here so I stuck around.

They are mordaunt short Mezzo series speakers.

Looks like the valley I'm seeing is due to a steep off axis notch in that area. Looking at the response in the link I'm not too far off what should be expected.
