Apparently unless we have wonderful things to say about Jay's new room we aren't allowed to express our opinions. Who needs acoustically designed rooms when you have epoxy flooring in an echo chamber? Is this a valid concern, or am I overthinking it? Unfortunately to many of us unseasoned hobbyists, forums are a powerful educational tool offering invaluable information from seasoned and trusted experts, but just not on this particular discussion.
Jay's rooms almost done - getting nervous
I have complete faith these rooms are going to be game changing. I can't wait to see the reference equipment. I don't understand new floors, they are so pretty all lacqered up and everything, and really cool surface designs. if you haven't seen you should take a look. Hope no one slips and falls and don't you need a rug.
But that's not why I'm nervous, I haven't gotten my invitation to the barbecue. I have amazing things planned that I can bring. I know Jay's got a lot of things on his mind and he hasn't forgotten about me.

You are very lucky your room is absolutely perfect and cannot be criticized except for the windows which acoustically may be a problem however this is incredibly offset by the magnificent views and the location presumably in the middle of a very peaceful tranquil Woodlands environment that very few of us will ever be able to live in. My guess is your speakers don't care much about the acoustical merits of a room because they look they can overcome any room challenges. I'd love to know the history behind the animal skull on your wall but you probably share that only with those who are privileged enough to visit this incredible room.

I am not the only one it seems who is directly insulted and answered in a sarcastic insulting way by this "idiot" who had no manner... Suppose, dear idiot but i must say also "friend", that my posts are only a "broken record", what are then your insulting posts added to almost all of my posts since a year, if not instead of my repeated information, pure useless nauseating noise? If i was alone and the only one you treated as trash it will be nothing, but you acted as the "gentleman" you are with many others too...But i am the one you loved the most it seems... Thank you dear idiot and dear friend ... Refine your wit though,polish your humor...if i can suggest a positive critic to a friend...buy also an insuts dictionary ... Here one which is free: https://www.scribd.com/doc/79280821/Bad-Words-Dictionary

@emergingsoul thank you. Where do I start? I'm a firefighter and I have a degree in architecture. I have a very active life as a firefighter, designing and building. I love music and this space gives me peace. I wanted it to reflect the countryside. The bison skull is from a local bison farm. All the wood with the exception of the floor was all sourced locally from my property and nearby farms. Acoustically my room isn't acoustically correct but I intend on correcting what I can with ceiling panels I've been considering. Unfortunately I can't really do much of anything on the walls given the interior finishes. But I did utilize 300 year old beams and split logs to create diffusors. And I have Rockwool Safe and Sound behind 3 walls. This room was never really meant to be perfect but over the last couple of years I've become increasingly interested in HiFi. And this is a problem because I'm now forever analyzing everything - components, spkrs, interconnects, power cords, USB cables. So where do you draw the line? These forums have been educational and I've connected with some fine people.

Nevermind acoustics keep your room as it is.... Do not modify it too much... Try to reach a minimally acoustically satisfying experience and stop there ... It is a very relaxing sight... Congratulation fire_water !
