The acoustic design for the listening room area was designed by Rives Audio based on optimizing stereo reproduction. A local carpenter implemented the Rives Audio design plan. (4) 6' X 6' diffuser "clouds" utilizing (4) RPG BAD panels each are suspended from the media room ceiling. LED lighting strips are mounted behind the crown molding in the upper decorator setback areas, and around perimeter of center opening in each of the (4) diffuser "clouds".
An absorber "cloud" is suspended from the hallway ceiling at rear of the listening room designed to acoustically isolate the kitchen area.
Absorber panels are mounted to the rear walls of high plant decorator areas in the kitchen and the listening room areas.
First reflection points are controlled by an ASC Picture panel hung on left side wall and Echo Buster floor standing absorber panels on the right side wall.
Echo Buster wall absorber panels are used at rear hallway wall and breakfast nook areas.
RPG BAD panels are positioned in front of the plasma HDTV and on the kitchen countertop during stereo listening.
Additional absorption is provided by insulated shades in front of Breakfast Nook butt-glass windows & the French door at FR room entrance.
Wool area rugs partially cover the hard wood floor surface between the sitting position and front speakers, and the tile surfaces in the breakfast nook and FR rear hallway.
Wood shutters cover French doors on the right side wall and (3) arched windows on the front wall of the listening room.
