Common acoustic mistakes in living rooms

Most disappointing results in living rooms come from a few predictable mistakes.

1. Buying panels too small to matter
2. Hanging one panel and expecting a big change
3. Covering a wall evenly when grouping looks better and works as well
4. Buying by the panel instead of by the absorption the room needs.
5. Confusing absorption with soundproofing.

Avoid all of these by starting with the panel count and the placement guide.
