Solve layout first
Speaker and seating position can change reflections and bass behaviour before a panel is added. Large bare surfaces, glass and hard floors should be understood as part of the room rather than treated in isolation.

Acoustic Interiors Without Making Your Home Look Like a Studio
Acoustic improvement does not require covering every wall with technical panels. Start with the room, speaker position and ordinary soft furnishings, then add targeted treatment only where it solves a real problem.
Planning guidance — final supplied configuration remains project-specific.
Use ordinary interiors intelligently
Rugs, curtains, upholstered furniture, books and irregular shelving can reduce some excessive reflection while preserving the character of the room.
Add dedicated treatment where it earns its place
Timber slat and absorptive panels can work well when their exact acoustic, fire, substrate and installation characteristics fit the project. Do not promise a measured improvement without project-specific evidence.
