Uhmmm.... hate to be Debbie Downer, but for this to work you need to use acoustically transparent canvas, which most prints aren't. This will be a marginal change at best. Hang more canvas art, without the backing and it'll contribute more to sound suppression. Get a rug, curtains, etc... lots of improvements can be made which will look great and contribute much more significantly to your acoustic nirvana ;)
Firstly, thanks for commenting. I really appreciate the feedback. I completely agree that rugs, heavy drapes and things like furniture placement will have a bigger effect on the sound than an acoustically absorbing piece of art on the wall, check out this video that gets into all those things; ruclips.net/video/F_g9wHTfF44/видео.html The reason I made the video in the link is because the sound of my stereo in my room at home is so lifelike and compelling that friends family and neighbors often ask me what equipment should they buy to get music to sound as good in their homes. In nearly all cases I have to tell them they’d be wasting their money unless they fix their room acoustics and that if they did that, they’d probably be happy with the HiFi they have. I found that some people are perfectly willing to spend a couple of thousand on a new HiFi system but absolutely adamant about not having a rug or drapes in their room let alone purpose made acoustic panels or diffusers. This is where the video that you commented on can help. They get to pick their own art, and a little attention to acoustics is better than none. To your specific point about the canvas, acoustically transparent fabric would be ideal but if you put a piece of unframed art in front of a speaker, you’ll find that most of the sound does come through. Not all frequencies come through equally but the mix of reflected and absorbed sound acts as a partial diffuser and is quite helpful. It’s much, much, better than a hard flat wall when hung in the right locations.
Very helpful!!! Thank you!
Beautiful work thanks Mr Gaget 😊❤❤
