Modernists Unite, or: saying no to room treatment
My apologies if this is posted in the wrong section.
So far as I can discern here, modern architectural design and sound quality are almost completely at odds with each other. There are many nice systems posted that are in (to my eyes) gorgeous, clean, modern/contemporary homes, and generally speaking, the comments eventually get around to refuting the possibility that the sound in these rooms can really be very good.
Perhaps Digital Room Correction offers some hope, but I don't see it deployed overmuch.
So is it true? Are all the modernists suffering with 80th percentile sound?
It's not about WAF. I don't want to live in a rug-covered padded cell either. ;-)
