'L' Shaped Listening Rooms. What works?


I'm working with an 'L' shaped room. Kitchen and livingroom are all open running 22ft by 22ft by 12ft on the inside of the L. This is a tricky room to work with. Now I'm looking on bringing the sound even further into the room. The bad news is I can't move the speakers further into the room. How do you deal with your L rooms? Thanks in advance, Bluenose

I closed my L shaped room in utilizing french doors which maintain the open feeling and light but sonically reshapes the room. Every other acoustic remedy I tried was a waste of time and money.
With due respect to the speaker placement programs, the fact remains that you will still have your "L" shaped room that sucks. If you can not change the room, how about a good set of phones and leave the speakers for background listening. One other note, when I still had an "L" room, I had the best results with two-way mini monitors taking bass out of the equation. Good Luck.
