So i've recently moved into a 1 bedroom duplex and the acoustics here are pretty terrible, so i've purchased twenty-four sq. ft. (1'x1' squares) of acoustic foam panels as well as four 12"x12"24" corner bass-traps. I've done a fair amount of research (mostly information from Ethan Winer of Real Traps) but I would still appreciate some ideas based on my specific layout.
I'm wanting to know where to focus and how many panels to use in each area (like at first reflection points). I also don't know the best locations for my bass-traps since I technically have 10 options for their placement.
I have taken dimensions of my living space and also created a model of it in the CAD program Revit (to a 1/4" accuracy pretty much)...so the following images (wish I could upload a .pdf) should provide most of the information needed to help me. Supplemental / clarification information below:
- I have Wharfedale Diamond 10.1 speakers on 28" stands (strictly 2.0 system)
-The furniture and speakers are placed at close approximates
-The shelf (Ikea Expedit) in the corner is the only piece of furniture that is actually what I own, the rest of the furniture are close placeholders
-I have a futon, which I assume is fairly good at absorbing some wavelengths, and my head-height while sitting is about
-The Living Room and Kitchen are one room, but are separated by a low wall/raised counter-top
-The futon is currently about 6'11" away from the front wall (and less than 2' from back wall)
Any help would be greatly appreciated--thanks in advance!
