Decoupling I think is a good idea just if there are things physically vibrating. A cheap way to do it is just to use putty like white/blu-tack, foam, even just folded up paper towels!

The natural sound of your voice is so much more natural and enjoyable imho. Even on a macbook's speakers, it feels like actual AIR is breathing in, instead of those wicked dark magic algorhtyhms that take the best away from us all really (we're getting there) for "stUdiOs SoUnd" sake. The irony in my comment is that I'm a super lazy acousticians that relies on Trinnov to do the dark magic. Even though I tend to wisely apply your precious, hard earned, acoustic wisdom 🤍 Your room doesn't sound that bad at all. i like it the way it is. Cheers from somewhere in french Brittany. Max

You mentioned before that it's best to do broadband absorbtion before pressure absorbers, but what if you don't plan on bassically covering your entire room because of practical reasons, then would it make sense to only use pressure absorbers to take care of low end issues?

Thank you for answering my question on time aligning speakers and sub. I downloaded Open Sound Meter and using the user guide got so far before it got a bit complicated on how to use the time align/phase feature. A video on this in the future would be really appreciated. 😎

Hi Jesco, thanks for the wisdom! One question I had that might be interesting for future knowledge bombardments: If I have nailed down my speaker position (close to the wall in my case) using some pretty standard stands, would it be workable to make some sturdy DIY wall mount fixtures for them out of wood? Basically a wooden platform for the monitors with some vibrational damping. Could this be a bad idea regarding vibrations? Thanks in advance, even if you don't pick this question :)

Thank you for answering my question Jesco! I love your channel and this content! Because of you I became obsessed with acoustics and thanks to you my room finally sounds like heaven! 😎 Not that I know how heaven sounds like but I imagine it would sound something like this! 😂

Hey Jesco, love your videos-I started with the "Home Studio Treatment Framework" (and thank you for all the materials. This 'was-through' demystified the process for me. I have one of those "terrible setups" that can not be 'altered/worked around": Studio Apt, 'shoe box' shape( 11.5'x22'x8'), with daw desk 1' off the wall 1/3 of long length location. While working thru your process I noticed that my location 'by the book' isnt so bad, but that pesky low freq bump and sub low, room mode issues are there. this space is so resonant (low sensitive) that even diesel trucks outside excite the sub low end in my space. I need to add low end absorption (bass traps) but no wall space available to build out. Can I eliminate/control the low-end with hanging clouds (all that unused ceiling space) instead treating the walls/corners? Again many thanks for your content and insights!

Hi Jesko. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.The first question was really a good one, maybe I say that because I am in the same situation.. I think it asked what to do if the best listening spot is at a place where you are not able to treat the first reflections, because there's something you can't move like an oven or a window or something else on the 'side' walls. What would you do in this situation. Put up moving gobos of drapes if there is enough space?

I'm loving that my space is dead enough that I no longer feel the need to reduce the room tone.

Do you know of any good insulation in the UK of around 5000 (Pa.s/m2). It seems so much harder to find lower density for thicker panels. What is a good Absorption Coefficient - all traps I input into acousticmodelling really fall off below 100hz unless you get 300mm with a 300mm airgap with 5000 Pa.s/m2 which gives a 0.7 coefficient at 60Hz. Is there any point in acoustic treatment if you can't control your sub properly?

Better with the StereoSound. Thanks for the insight!

Hi, I have a burning question for the next episode: Ideally, how close to the face can sound get? My speakers are 2.5m away from the listening position and I'm able to perceive the driest of sounds as being about 1m in front of me. I unfrotunately don't have a reference point for how good this is, or how much better this could be.
