Room Response

I have taken years and a lot of experimentation in trying to make my listening room, as good as I can. I have incorporated absorption and am currently making a quadratic diffuser for my front wall. Even though I've done or doing these things, my room isn't perfectly balanced, as far as it's layout. It's a basic triangle 19'x21'x9'. I'm concerned that my TT rack on one side, my end table on the other etc, is disrupting my sound. My listening "triangle" is pristine, but know all room contents has an effect. In your experiences, how has your room floor standing contents, etc, effected your sound? Im mindful about diffusion and absorption.  I find I may have to adjust my balance control, depending on the CD, or LP. I experience this on a regular basis. I think this is normal though. I may be TOO analytical. I have gone from a 3 seater couch, to single listening chair,which has had more of an effect than I thought. Guests have to take turns in the sweet spot. Couldn't occupy thee same spot anyway.  Unless she's my wife:).

Then I placed a ten-pack of Synergistic Research around the room as directed. Walla, room problems solved.

And a partridge in a pear tree.
Give me a break, more fuser voodoo from SR, pack of 10 is $500!!!!!!!

QUOTE SR: "

These small transducers, strategically placed in the listening room make a great improvement to the sound. You can treat your room in three stages and beyond that put it on your speakers (stage 4 & 5). The HFT's are very small and very easy to handle. They come in sets of five, a strip of Blue Tek for easy mounting is included.

NOW NEW:

Officially announcing two new HFTs- HFT 2.0 and HFT X that take the HFT concept to exciting new levels. The HFT 2.0 is a warmer sounding transducer and HFT X has more details and resolution and both are intended to be used in conjunction with the original HFTs. Click the "Setup for HFT 2.0 and HFT X" tab above to see a step by step placement guide for how to install the new HFT 2.0 and HFT-X in your system.

The effect of the HFT's in combination with Synergistic's FEQ (Frequency Equalizer) can even be intensified.

What they do:
 - Tunes acoustics, chassis and speaker cabinet resonances
 - Expands soundstage height, width and depth
 - Extends and clarifies high frequencies
 - Dramatically improves low frequency extension / bass control
 - Lowers noise floor for improved inner detail and micro-dynamics
 - Significantly improved all aspects of system performance
 - Unconditional no-risk 30-day money back guarantee"
