Not sure what treatment I need
« on: 25 Oct 2012, 03:57 am »
I hope some of the experts can help me with this treatment puzzler.
I used to have a drawing of the listening area but I can't find it tonight.
Full disclosrue: 3 years ago I corrsponded with Bryan about this problem and he presented his ideas to me
by email.  I had to put the treatment project on hold (read: economy) and unfortunately I have lost the entire email thread!  I am so upset!
Anyways - here goes:
2 channel listening.
Very unusual room setting - I am in my basement which is a very large area.
7 foot ceiling.
Sweet spot surroundings:
Wall behind my head - 3 feet back
Wall to the left of my head - 5 feet to the left. 
NO WALL to the right - right wall is at least 15 feet to the right.
I definitely hear ringing in the upper frequencies which I assume means that I need some kind of absorption behind me.
It is the left wall that really has me stumped:  absorb or diffuse?
Any ideas or advice would be appreciated.

PM me your name and email address.  I'm an email hoarder and may still have our thread in one of my old saved email folders...

Good being a hoarder I guess. Still have the pics and found our email chain in a local storage folder.  Emailed you the chain.
