Room treatment

[loopdon]

Not treated my room yet but i am very sure the best thing is to find out where exactly the problem areas lie first of all:

"If I were to do it I'd first measure the room using a MLSSA system and a measuring mic. I'd be looking at the waterfall plot to see where the problems lay in both the frequency and time domains.
I'd be looking at the overall and spot RT60 levels.

Then I'd start to think about what treatment mught be necessary. "

...from a thread that stuck to my mind...
