I’m curious to see how you guys approached front wall treatment in your spaces. I’ve seen some control rooms with a lot of absorption, some with diffusion, and some bare. Did you focus on the corners, other walls, and ceiling instead?
I’m using JBL LSR305 speakers at home. I moved the speakers closer to the wall from 12” to 4” and it evened out nulls in the 100-140Hz range. There is a block wall 6” behind the front drywall, so I suppose the block wall is the the actual surface reflecting all of the low frequencies.
I was originally going to make two panels to put behind the speakers when they were 12” off the wall. However, placing a 4” 703 panel directly behind the speakers did not seem to help in that 100Hz range.

I just put a few 4" thick panels on the front wall. Mainly behind the speakers. I did it mainly for reflections, not balancing out the room modes.

My favorite sounding control rooms typically have a lot of broadband absorption in the front wall, and/or soffited speakers

A couple thousand LPs has always worked for me!

I think I’ll add some more absorption on the front wall sooner rather than later. I’ve put up some absorption around my room, but my front wall is pretty bare for now.  |

Oh yes, part of the junk pile! There's also a 1995 Powermac 8100 behind the Palindrometer and it sits atop a 1992 Panasonic DAT machine (one of 3 defunct ones) |

Only proving that those old macs last forever, including their second life repurposing.

This seems appropriate... 20 odd minute video showing BOP studios in various stages of construction. Tom Hidley room. Everything is exposed here including the massively deep bass trapping. Hidden behind / built into walls. And an old SOS piece on the studio w/ some pictures & from the hip floor plans etc. www.soundonsound.com/music-business/bop-studios-storyGood stuff! |
