Basement Control Room Design

Sorry for the late reply. Did you find time to build much? Regarding your rear wall treatment, how far from the face of your diffuser would your ears be? Greg

Hi Greg, No problem, I'm grateful for any reply you can give me. I'm just completed the front and back walls today (took a vacation week to work on this). My ears will be about 8 1/2' from the front of the diffuser (about 14.5' long room). Let me know if you need more exact measurements. Here's what I'm planning: I'm adding that little rear wall to make room for a 5.5" deep diffuser and more insulation. Planning on filling everything around the diffuser and in the corners with Safe n Sound. What do you think? I'll probably be building this in a couple days or so... Thanks again! Andy

I'm way overdue with posting these pics. Many thanks for those who helped me out, especially Greg! Couldn't have done it without you. I've probably screwed up a ton of things, but I'm just glad it's finally done. :) Here's a slide show with all the photos Here's a couple highlights... This is the basement area I started with: The REW graph looks relatively flat, I think, at least for an amateur like me, but I don't have much to compare it to. Not sure why high end is so wicked choppy, hope I didn't screw things up with my diffusor. And the phase looks pretty wacked, but not really sure what it should look like. Guessing it shouldn't look like that tho. And definitely have some buildup at 100hz, but not sure how to fix it. If anyone has suggestions / feedback I'd appreciate it. Thanks again, this is really a nice site. buzz
