Hi Avare,

Sorry for the late reply on this thread!

My priority is definitely acoustic performance over price but obviously price is always a factor.

My room is fairly small: 8.5' x 11' with 8' ceilings. There are obviously some serious room mode issues when it is this small.

So with those dimensions I need to be taming the (approx.) 100Hz, 135Hz and 140Hz room modes (never mind the diagonals etc.)

So I would hope that 4" thick 2x4 panel bass traps placed on each corner and broadband panels placed at the first reflection points should all help deal with the situation.

cheers,
intellijel
