Room acoustics vs tune method

Post by Paaf »

My room acoustics is not great due to having one speaker near a corner.

I used the tune method for positioning the speakers, with the contraint to have symmetry around the tv on the wall behind. The resulting tune is great!

However, the stereo image is skewed to the left, it seems to shy away from the right corner. Some sounds are more skewed than others, causing also a confused image.

I tried different ways to reduce reflections from the wall behind the speakers, and stereo image finally improved, BUT tune got bad!? It surprised me!

Anyway since tune is top priority, I removed all my acoustic tweaks... for now. Hoping to learn from you guys!

What material do you use to reduce room reflections that keeps tune or even improves it?

How do you place it?

Do you re-tune the speaker placement after an acoustic change?

Other hints or ideas?
