RE: yet another post about room placement for Magnepan 1.7s

Ok, I have my treatments in place and the speakers in the smaller room. I think it sounds pretty good. I don't think I would have been able to get placement correctly with a TV in the center. I'm still tweaking placement of the speakers and the room treatments (gik tritraps in the corners.. I had 2 244 panels behind the loveseat, but I moved them last night.. I feel they're causing the bass to become too uneven. I'm going to have to do some actual room measurements this weekend.)

Currently I feel the bass is pretty tamed, but I won't be able to say for sure without measurements. However, there's a lot of flutter echo due to the small size of the room. I was originally thinking of getting canvas pictures to hang and put some fake trees in. However, I believe I'd get more bang for my buck by building my own traps using 703. I'll be looking at that this weekend.

Is anyone here familiar with room treatments and maggies? I'm not sure whether or not I still want to put absorption on the first reflections and behind the speakers or if that will kill the dipole sound too much.
