Large room fix


What is the best amp and speaker combo for a room with all hard surfaces. I didn't really know how bad my system sounded until I hooked up my older gear into the short term rented home I am in now. Long story short......my pre upgraded (older) equipment I have playing now in a "normal" sized room with wall to wall carpeting sounds way better then my "upgraded" gear in my home with hard floors, large windows and tall ceilings. Do I simply need more power and bigger woofers?

The simplest fix is to throw down an area rug to absorb some of the reflected sound. Next is to reposition the speakers and where you sit. Portable/temporary room acoustic panels may be the best answer. The bass panels and mid/hi absorbers are not hard to make if you have time and skills and will save you lots of $$$$$$$.
