Carpet vs acoustic tiles on walls

Quote:
Side note:

I have this general suggestion for those wanting to learn about acoustics:


A) read this 3 page thread Acoustic Treatment basic FAQ , its a easy read in layman terms, good foundation with practical discussion.


B) Then I'd say read the first 4-5 pages of Acoustical Treatments Master Thread , there are 200+ pages there but first 4-5 cover much of the stuff


C) Then, post into link given in B your room size/etc and ask your Q's there, if not already answered by doing A) and B) above


D) If you have desire for more knowledge:

-read one of many books out there, a great 1st book is "Master Handbook of Acoustics" by F. Alton Everest

-study Ethan Winers site, http://www.ethanwiner.com/acoustics.html

-This is also a 101 read on Room Acoustics, http://www.crutchfield.com/learn/lea...acoustics.html

-I was surprised at this SAE Home Acoustics info site http://www.sae.edu/reference_materia.../fullindex.htm

-There are many other sites on the web, like http://forum.studiotips.com/index.php , acoustical measurements defined http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue12/rives2.htm , http://www.rpginc.com/news/library.htm , etc.

-Be careful of info overload all at once
