Flatscreen between speakers
Has anyone found a solution to cancel or at least improve the acoustic glare caused by a flatscreen tv on the wall behind the speakers? I don’t have a dedicated room and have to share the room with my home theater setup. I have thought of using an appropriate curtain and treat the tv as if it was a window. I am also considering light 3D printed panels that I can temporarily hung when listening to music and take down when watching TV with the wife.
I tried hanging a couple of thick towels on it to see if there would be any improvement and the answer is yes. The center image is more solid and a little deeper. Nothing drastic but if I could squeeze anything positive, why not. Please let me know if you have confronted this issue in the past and whether you were able to solve it. Thanks.
Looking forward to hearing how your solution works out. As an alternative for other users, a lift operated TV cabinet could be a good solution. Gives you the option of leaving the tv up or down during listening sessions . The design on the the cabinet in the images should have good diffusion properties. When finished the fillets will run the full height of the cabinet. This particular cabinet is to house a 75" QLED with LCR Portrait side speakers. |
@bhrapp. Certainly will. The shop looks pretty good. Obviously, you are a pro. Woodworking is my hobby, just love it. |
@spenav Been operating a shop in the roaring fork valley for 33 years. Lots of people have woodworking as a hobby for good reason. Something about creating things is very satisfying. I feel like the same can be said about musicians and the desire to make and create music. . |
Other than having a flat screen between your fronts, instead of diffusion panels, I am not aware of any other compromises. Each system runs completely independent, with the exception of the fronts & front amp via HT pass through. I have an SQL sub for 2 channel and a SPL sub for HT. Any compromises were more around what I was willing to spend. And I love to watch sports while streaming Qobuz. |
