Overcoming ba(e)droom accoustics


Room & Measurements: 1drv.ms/1Tu3mHK

I did exactly what I set out *not* to do with my stereo, I ignored the accoustic limitations of my room. I'll take recommendations however I'd appreciate direction more as to stay out of trouble in the future. "Give a man a fish.."

I live with the parents, the room doubles as bedroom/office. Stereo doubles for day/night listening. Concert levels not needed, approaching 85db the room sets the tone & degrades the sound.

I am thinking high-efficiency for wider volume range(avoid tuning for thermal compression?) narrow-dispertion/horns/dipoles as methods to negating sidewall reflections.

Limitations are budget($3500 max, no minimum,) speakers must be out in the room, room cannot be treated. Music preferences demand full frequency range, wide range of genres. I am willing to rebuild my stereo. Current components in play: Ultra Fi DAC, Triode Lab EL84 10W, FAL Supreme S. 

Advice?

As long as the room is symmetrical you will be fine. Non- symmetrical rooms are a lost cause though, abandon all hope.
