I recently bought a set of Epos Epic 2 speakers. In the beginning they seemed a little bright. After about 3 weeks of constant use, the speakers warmed sufficiently that I was convinced that I had made a good choice. This evening I hung a set of curtains to help with lighting, for daytime TV viewing. After completion I sat down to listen to a new Keb MO CD.. I was astounded at the difference these 2 57"x 78" curtain panels made when I mounted them on the right rear sidewall of the room, that covered windows with metal blinds. My question is are there other easy common sense modifications such as decorative acoustic wall panels that would make a difference. Besides carpeting, there is nothing particularly soft or absorbent in the room. Both Sofa and Chair are leather.
I'm sure this is basic Acoustics 101, but any help would be appreciated.
