diffusive or reflective. And do not simply leave the studs bare and wide open, 

figuring that the stretched fabric will make it all better.  Cut a hole in the wall’s 

surface just large enough for the face of the speaker itself, and adjust the 
mounting brackets so that the face of the speaker is flush with the wall face.  

5.

 

If you are doing a front projection system, choose an acoustically 
transparent screen material, and cover everything except the speakers 
themselves with absorption on that front wall

.  Other parts of the room’s 

décor may or may not lend themselves to being covered with fabric.  But the 
front wall will be largely covered, so take advantage of the ease with which you 
can reduce early reflections from the front wall, and back-and-forth slap 
echoes along the length of the room.
