I like your point about not getting too caught up in the exact r factor for decay. I actually believe that you want to hear your room. I did some basic Vicoustics that you all helped me map out and it sounds terrific. I really did not overdo the number of panels and could not be happier.
I think it's great to have this video concentrating on an area that is so often overlooked and forgotten, with people not realizing the huge impact proper room treatment can have on the overall listening experience. I recently added a reasonable amount of treatment to my non-dedicated theater room, and I was surprised at how much more focused the sound became, as well as how much more immersive it became. Excellent tips in this video - thanks!
Another great video. You sure make that look easy. I have a question, for this forum: I'm thinking of adding some large movie posters to my media room. (Rectangular room setup, screen at one end) In the past, I'd have framed them under glass, which I now realize may not be a good idea. I'm thinking posters on stretched canvas over wood frames, and adding a layer of sound insulation, similar to what's shown here. Thoughts, anyone?
Hello, i'd like to ask about why my Front Left sounds louder than my Front Right channel when i'm sitting directly at the front right channel? It sounded the same too when i'm at the front left channel, the front right sounds louder..
Is it recommended to put a slat wall behind the TV? I was thinking about aesthetics and improving sound quality. My intention is to put 2 on-wall speakers beside the TV and a center speaker because the house is prewired.

Hi, I got weird questions... I'm a smoker and I wanna be able to smoke while watching movies in my home theater (quit smoking is unfortunately not an option). So here are my questions: 1. Is installing air exhaust enough? 2. Do I still need to have windows to get extra ventilation and to get the smell out? 3. Is the reason why you can't have windows because of the glass or simply the fact that having an openings is a no no? What if I make that windows out of wood or other acoustic friendly materials? I don't t have a problem if the sound is leaking to the outside because I don't have a neighbor...🤣🤣🤣As for controlling the light, I'll have curtains and an "exterior skin" as extra measures (I don't know the right terms, but I mean that extra layer outside a building, usually used for facade or extra privacy).

Superb overview. I like the balance of acoustic treatment with the great aesthetics you show in the theaters you all do. It's got to look good too!
Thanks so much! 😁

A slat wall will offer minor acoustic improvements, but is a great way to get a nice look.
@@AudioAdvice There are some slat that are acoustic panels too, would that work better or is it the position that would do less treatment?
@@JoseSorianoPhotographyYes. That type would be ideal
Focal aria evo x or klipsch rf7iii which one is better for home theater.

The article says 2.4 not 2.6 on length which is "correct" for the correct ratio?

You could put curtains over the windows. We would recommend contacting a company that does cigar rooms to get a good ventilation system
