I'm converting my office into a listening/audio restoration (mixing) room. Most of the material I work with is 100-year-old 78 RPM jazz records with little in the way of usable information below 200 Hz. That said, I still listen to modern music in the room and I want the response to be as flat as possible.
One of the bigger limitations is that the room has a smaller back section that's about four feet more narrow on one side. I have an upright piano in there and some shelves, and I'd like to cordon that off from the rest of the room when I'm doing serious audio work. I'm thinking of putting up a movable thick acoustical curtain or partition wall. First impressions from research is that they're generally not cheap and that the best curtains are about as effective as the movable walls.
The space to be blocked off by a curtain or wall is 8 feet high and a 9 feet wide
Any recommendations, thoughts, or warnings? I suppose I could get a bunch of high quality panels on stands, but the movable curtain or wall would be more practical to use and store. I'm in the midst of ordering some room treatments from GIK, but I'm considering the whole picture at the same time. Thanks!
I use Genelec 8351b monitors, so I can fix a lot with GLM, but would like to start with the best possible room.
