What are the limits of room correction/ treatments ?


My old listening room was open to other parts of the house allowing excess bass energy to escape and had a high 13ft. ceiling. Clear tight bass and open clear midrange even when loud. My current room, while bigger ( 17 x 21), is boxy with 9' ceilings and a single door entrance. You can really hear the room getting in the way on many recordings, esp with louder complex recordings. Can room correction + treatments really make my current room sound like the old one?

You can never under estimate the value of treatment to room...just going through it myself...been having to adjust (only) the bass traps...1" or 2 either way make a huge difference in sound stage and balance...

as others mention well place speakers are crucial...just part of equation that can be frustrating as hell...but so worth it when achieved...never going to be perfect but its a effort that pays off in enjoyment.
