Help building a small room with audio
Hey everyone, I've got a small "area" in my basement that I use as my computer/recording studio area. I've been thinking about walling it in to make a "room" out of it and I was wondering if I could get some advice.
My speakers are Von Schweikert VR-1's and my rig is a yamaha M406 mixer powered by a Stewart PA1000 power amp. Source is primarily audio files on my PC. The primary instrument recorded via mic is trumpet - everything else is typically electronically generated or recorded directly.
Here is a link to a JPG rendition that I hastily concocted:

The room is to be 10x8 feet with a desk running the entire length and left side. There is one 2x2foot corner that is cutout to make room for the chimney. Ceiling is roughly 7 feet and will remain unfinished. Desk will be constructed of 2x4's and plywood. Floor is concrete but would be carpeted. One wall is concrete and the others would be drywall. I could drywall the concrete wall but would prefer not to.
My main reason for walling things off is keep the room warmer in the winter months. I live in Wisconsin and it gets cold down in the basement!!
I'm pretty happy with the way things sound right now in spite of the concrete floor and wall. Will it sound completely horrible if I wall it in?? What can I do while constructing to make a small room sound decent?
