Sorry Cheesero,

My earlier comments were not meant for you but the owner of that room.

You also have to remember that the owner of the room is a reviewer, and he probably uses that room to listen/review equipment.

That's ok.
On any given day with the kid toys and dogs toys, my room sometimes doesn't have a floor. Who needs sound panels? Squishy stuffed animals on the laminate floor do amazing things for sound dissipation.

The stuff on the ceiling would never fly at my house. Ditto for those tan foam things (bass traps?). Same with the chairs.
IMO, he could have saved his money and bought a kegerator instead. That would have been a nice addition to that room.

My bet is that the guy is the type that dresses up for Star Trek converntions or got married as a Klingon.

Come on, I like my audio but that is a little overkill. Imagine bringing a date home to that.

I can see the white wall panels blending well with some modern style interiors, but how much of that stuff would you need to hear some significant changes?
The only bare wall surfaces I have available are behind the speakers (won't help there will it?), and the ceiling. I know the ceiling is off limits.
Definitely looks like a bachelor pad product.

btw, it's CheSSeroo (common mistake...)

We're being a bit harsh here, aren't we? I wouldn't want it in my own house, and I don't really care enough to do it, but just because this guy does...

Oh, no. I think we're probably being charitable. I'm sure it sounds terrific, but it is pretty f#$'in awful to look at.

Some of it didn't look too bad - the white panels if they are lined up at the same height and size. Even on the ceiling if it blends with the white on the ceiling.

And, yeah only do as much as will look okay. Like someone said - it will sound terrible if you can't stand to look at the room.

If I was an AV reviewer??? I might do some of it if my wife had her own area of the house. Then I could tell people exactly what they would never get to hear.

Like the cacophony of laughter and choruses of "dumbass" from people you invite into the room?
