    How Can I Improve the Acoustics in My Room?

    Start with the Room Itself

    The first way to improve room acoustics is to look at your space. Bare walls and hard floors bounce sound around in ways that muddy up music and voices. You can soften the sound with curtains, rugs, and furniture. These help absorb sound waves so they do not bounce back and create distortion. Even better, let us help you plan out a listening room design with expert acoustical control. We use custom panels and wall treatments to fine-tune the sound in any space. Every piece is placed with purpose to create the best high-fidelity sound possible. For background on what makes a room sound right, read What Are Good Acoustics in a Room?.

    Place Your Speakers Right

    Where you sit and where your speakers go plays a big role in room acoustics. Use the 38 percent rule as a starting point, and then fine-tune it, our breakdown of the 38% Rule walks you through it. Your speakers should not be pushed against walls or sitting on the floor. With the right home theater installation, speaker placement is precise. You get balanced, powerful sound that wraps around you. If your sound system is spread throughout the house, our expert distributed audio setup ensures every room sounds great, without one overpowering the next.
