Re: room treatment on a budget [Yes]

Stereophile did mention cardboard boxes with newspaper, it was in a review written by J-10. It was done by the Shun Mook guys. I did this for a while and found it to help a bit. Another words, much better than nothing. I also had a 2ft stack of newspapers that were sitting on a hassock on one side of the room. Removing the stack of papers had a major negative effect on sound. The empty cylinders might work, try stuffing them with newspaper and place one or more [stacked] in each corner of the room. Also the cork board might help by placing it behind the speakers and on the side walls at the point of first reflection. Also try some on back wall behind where you sit. None of these will be as effective as the DIY ones that Jon Risch designed. If you are having bass problems try the Quick & dirty Bass Traps, see link below. It might help us to know what you are trying to accomplish with the room treatments.
