Both excellent ideas. I went the route of Rich. Tex has a great idea too if you can afford a consultant. If you google around there are stories of people tearing rooms out after building. Better to have a concrete plan on paper and not to wing it.  Thar pic was a room 15W X13H X 19L. Wierd dimensions but it sounds great now. Local studio mixers test their tracks in there now. Nice room. It is a film grading studio. Easiest way is start with a room and pop a balloon... then see how deep the rabbit hole goes. I plan for commercial and resi installs, but dont do acoustical jobs anymore. Way too many man hours for too little money.

Trever, I can take rockets blasting off, cars crashing, explosions but balloons.... I’m not sure I can take balloons!

Lol. Its worth it. You have an RT60 module in the acoustic design section of the app.
Very useful.

Cool but a gross over-simplification. Boundaries are the biggest problem we face be it in society, organizations or engineering. The devil is in the details, and those who study them say that's where the fun is.

So it sounds like I should build out the room with all of the soundproofing and see how it sounds. I'll try the balloon trick first. Then possibly add diffusers and absorbers. Thanks for all of the information as always.

Kevin Voecks needs to listen to active LFRs. His opinion of stereo imaging and soundstage may change.

People are probably thinking that i'm like an Axiom employee or something. The initial discomfort I had with Axiom was a great read, I had issues, nonetheless, self inflected perhaps, I Don't Know. But i've learned so much with the help of these threads! I'm very grateful... in fact the less I post is only because i'm finally feeling that audio nirvana i've been chasing these last few months.
I've received quite a few pm's asking for advice and such, which I appreciate. I will always provide a very honest opinion, usually Axiom favorable, even though I have no stock in the game. I've purchased so many speakers now (to compare against Axiom) my wife says is no reason other than to spend money!
Folks, I'm Michael Dolan and Axiom Audio has provided me and my loved ones with memories that will last a lifetime! Thank you Axiom! Love you guys and all that you do! I wonder what happened. Did Rebulx get a permanent pedestal for his M100s? I still say M2s would have done the job given the less than ideal placement of the fronts.
