Hello all!
I have the opportuinty to move all the furniture in my room, since it's
being redecoarted. Now I wonder, if some of you might have tipps for an
audiophile distribution of my room. :-)
The room is 4 by 4 metres. There's a door in the left rear corner and a
window (roughly 1.8m width and 1.6m height) in the middle of the front wall.
Furniture to move: A big closet (2m), a bed (1x2m), a desk roughly 1.8m by 1m)
which holds the speakers. That's the big stuff. There are of course a few
synths to somehow get close to the desk and maybe another shelf 2m width.
But would the general dimensions of the room and the basic set of furniture
suggest a few does and don'ts. I guess the desk would sit well at the middle
of one wall, because I usually sit there as well, when I do voice recordings.
Song vocals I occasionally do somewhere else, but my microphone cable at the
moment isn't very long. :-)
So suggestions are welcome and very appreciated!
Warm regards
Julien

It might be worthwhile taking a wander over to the SOS forums.

They're a very helpful bunch over there, and even knowing I'm a linuxian
haven't kicked me out yet :)
I have a nasty, small, odd shaped room where a conventional hi-fi sounds
horrible. Based on their recommendations I got a pair of relatively cheap
nearfield monitors and was staggered at the difference - to be effective they
really do need to be only about a metre away (at head height) in the classic
equilateral triangle configuration. I was expecting the improved HF detail - I
was not expecting the dramatic improvement in LF behaviour!
Hmmm,
Maybe someday I'll get around to their other recommendations :D

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
