I am a complete novice when it comes to room acoustics but acoustic foam is rather inexpensive so I though this might be worth a try for my flat ceiling.
The room is 14ft wide x 13ft deep and 8ft high. The speakers are roughly 2.5ft from the front wall and I sit about 2ft from rear wall with a large bookshelf that covers most of the rear wall. The room has plenty of furniture, blinds, coat rack and house plants to help with some diffusion.
I am considering a 4ft x 4ft section of 2 inch thick acoustic foam for the ceiling in roughly the middle of the room and possibly a 4ft high x 2ft wide acoustic foam behind each speaker. A wall coat rack and blinds pretty much cover the first side reflections. Also considering some corner foam pieces in the ceilings. I don't feel like the room is "echoey" in any way but would this idea deaden the sound too much or possibly help with some resonance?
