Re: Room Acoustics Examined - Part Two

Nice video - some interesting ideas there. I hadn't really thought of a bookshelf or a plant working as a rudimentary diffuser!

Very informative and really interesting, thanks

Some more experimentation is the order of the night me thinks. The quest for the audio holy grail continues.

Just watched both parts and it was 20 minutes well spent, they've helped me understand some issues I seem to be having.
