The only space I was able to claim for myself in my house was this little 6' X 10' "niche". Well, it was this or the garage, so needless to say... Because of the space limitations I decided I could not move forward without working on some sound acoustic treatment, specially to address 'clap' echo and reflection. I was not concerned with bass as I purposely selected a monitor based speaker with a lot of character but not significant bass - the room helps amplify the low frequency in a more controlled fashion without becoming chaotic - the acoustic treatment brings a delay in the room natural resonance.
I listen to a great variety of music, but fundamentally jazz and 70's progressive rock. The system combination has proven to provide an almost magical experience - very intimate and with a lot of liquidity.
The decoration was a conceived with the whole system set up, my wife and my sister were the ones who designed the room, taking my functional requirements.
Nice room, yea it is small but hell I dont have my own room so I am still jealous, love the treatments, I know BW and also am familiar with Shanling, I bet it sounds great!
