Bose Innovations truth, Myth, & Lies

I've always understood that MINIMIZING sound reflection (soundproofing etc.) impoved sound,

I don't think you would like an anechoic chamber That is pretty well soundproofed and no reflection.
Concert halls have strategic locations for panels but it is certainly not soundproofed.

What about cinema setups? i was under the impression that reflection ruins the direction of sound and it was important to minimize reflection for a more true-life sound, obviously it wouldn't matter with lower undirectional frequencies?

I'll read more...

Ive always heard that SOME reflection is good. You just want to control what reflects from where. But to honest I know nothing about room accoustics.
