Are we talking about the same thing?

My response did not propose additional deadening nor treatment for early reflections at all - although any early reflections would be diffused as well as any other specular reflection in the live room.

The collimating phase gratings (the commercial version of which is called a Space Coupler) would act as diffusors to allow you to take advantage of the ceiling height and to increase the diffusion.

I guess I am a bit confused at the talk of over-deadening the room that the name implies should be live - meaning the ratio of direct to later arriving energy is large.
