hey Guys,
I’m just beginning my theater design. I plan to start a planning thread soon.
I have a few tweaks to make to this design but I want to make sure I’m figuring out the first reflection points correctly.
I did a mirror image of the speakers and drew lines to the seating positions. As I understand this will give me the point on the wall to place treatment … Q1 did I do that right?
I used this method -> See the last section "FIRST REFLECTIONS: SIDE WALLS" & Figure 4 on this link

The green shaded area is the full treatment area taking into account the front and rear seats.
My room is wide…19’ and it looks like it makes my treatment area soo large.
Q2 with that wide of a treatment area will columns be a problem in that area?
My false wall is 9” deep. I plan to make the front dead…Q3 is 9” deep of acoustic treatment too much for the front?
Thanks
Rick
BTW - The room is 19’9” x 19’9”
