RE: Limage: Oh my goodness.

Ha, so true Paul! But having arrived in N. Oregon/S. Washington after living in the California Desert for five years, I'm loving the Northwest dark. Enough with the sun, already!

I too have a window dead center on the wall behind my speakers. Because of their toe-in, each speaker's rear wave is reflected first off the side wall nearest it, then off that wall onto the front wall 5' behind the speaker, to the area between the window and the front/side wall corner, where I have an ASC Tube Trap, reflective side out. It is at that location, on the front wall to either side of the window, that I will be adding diffusers.

I regularly see people advising diffusers be placed in the center of the wall behind a pair of speakers. Why is that? It doesn't appear that that is a location of first-arrival reflections, even from dipole speakers. I would like to put a large screen there, in the window sill, with a sound-absorbing curtain drawn closed when not being viewed.
