Impala, 7 October 2010Hi there. I’m a relatively new member needing your precious comments to build and move our current control room to a new place. I wish I had more time to read all the…
gullfo, 7 October 2010here's one thought on getting better angles in the control room. i'd also block off whatever window you're not using with brick or other heavy mass. multiple window…
Soundman2020, 8 October 2010That is a three-leaf floating floor. Bad idea, if you want to have good isolation. Could you show the calculations that you did for that floor, to get the positions and…
Impala, 19 October 2010No it’s not a requirement. I prefer not to have them if it’s no use. Supporting the ceiling on the inner-leaf walls shouldn’t be a problem. I’ll revise. I was asking if…
Soundman2020, 19 October 2010Why not? The soffits go across the corners, but the sub (if there is one) and the center speaker go on the front wall: the center doesn't need to be soffit mounted if…
Impala, 20 October 2010Hi Glenn. 5.1 circle pushes center speaker forth and L&R back accordingly. Actually, when I draw the circle it became obvious that this placement makes rear speaker…
gullfo, 20 October 2010ok, gotcha. yes, in 5.1 you're basically 50% in the circle, but placing the circle in the room is key. you will have to make some compromises. you might have to sit in…

Impala, 11 November 2010Hi, Yesterday (daytime) I set up one 8040 in the empty room (control room space) and played 50 Cent's In Da Club at 100 dB (A weighted, slow, 1 meters away) which seems…
Soundman2020, 11 November 2010Looking at your diagram, your listening position is still almost exactly at the 50% point. You really should do something about that. I'd go with a much smaller desk and…
Impala, 11 November 2010I misinterpreted the situation. What I was trying to say was 'There wasn't any noticeable rise in the level at "ALL" setting. It kept showing the level. The desk is one…
Impala, 12 November 2010Here are revised sketchups. There's a chance to shorten desk's top so I'm able to get a bit closer to %38. (no soffit) As soffit mounting considered, aligning center…
Impala, 5 December 2010Hi! I'm about to order Green Glue and start construction. I will be generous and use GG on both walls, ceiling and floor (even the door if we're not able to find a…
Impala, 8 December 2010Hi, I'm about to decide the type of duct to use. This duct will be for exhaust only. Air conditioning will be dealt with split AC unit. There are two options: 1)…
Impala, 10 January 2011Hi, One question came from the architect. He's trying to keep the total weight of the room at minimum and asks if it's o.k. tı use thinner layers of drywall instead of…
