Simply put, the answer to this question is yes. Here’s why.
When the average person designs a home theater, he thinks about the aesthetics of the room, but not always the acoustics. The truth is that every single aspect of a room impacts sound – from pain to furniture to window coverings. We forget these thins when we go out to buy huge chairs, entertainment centers, a big screen televisions. And, as such, we sometimes mess up the acoustics.
So how do we solve the problem? We hang a few decorative acoustic panels around the room. They can usually be chosen to fit your decor and, in the end, your soundproofing efforts won’t be for naught. You’ll end up with a gorgeous room, and a relaxing, quiet place to enjoy your movies.
