    I had to, finally, move the 244 panels upstairs. Sandy had patiently turned a blind eye to them standing against various wall and door spaces while I experimented. They had to go before guests arrived for Thanksgiving.

    Yesterday, we got our tree (12' and overkill to me, but the family liked it) and, once it was in place and left to settle in, I settled in for some vinyl listening.

    Best room sound treatment yet!! I told the family we need to get another one and place it on the other side of the dining area. :p

    Seriously though, I think natural sound treatments would be awesome. 8 to 10 foot, fairly dense foliage vegetation in attractive pots? Might even rank high with WAF. What do you think?

    Believe or not, I bet the needles on the branches act great as diffusers. I've heard about this before, using plants in the room. Gorgeous tree and room by the way! :)

    @Polkie2009 - Thanks for the kind words!

    With the full knowledge and acceptance of the fact I will never create anything approaching an anechoic space in a living/dining area, I'm going to research 4 to 8 foot plants that have a winning chance of surviving indoor life. Then, try to develop a layout utilizing them to abate reflections in this challenging room. Should be a fun exercise.
