If it were me, I'd have all that beautiful equipment lined up on that ledge below the window. They deserve to be displayed. ;-) Then I would move that great looking cabinet to another room, which would leaving nothing but the TV, sound bar and B&W's up front. But that's just me.
Regardless, that's a great looking room and system as is. |

Matt,
You have a beautiful system and have done an excellent job integrating music into your family living space. I like it a lot!

As to the commonly held belief that having gear between the speakers, I've felt for some time that this argument is overblown. Sometimes the real world forces us to do this, as is the case with my main system. But I still have an excellent soundstage, with voices and instruments very clearly defined in space between my speakers, in spite of the large amount of gear that is residing there. I agree that the speakers shouldn't be "behind" a lot of stuff, but in looking at your arrangement (particularly in one side perspective) I would not expect any issues here. At the end of the day, I think your arrangement is beautiful, and completely appropriate. Pete

Really awesome looking room, I've always thought the B&W 802's were one of the cooler looking speakers out there.....well done!

Makes sense. Do u think a room divider, I kinda like those folding dividers with Chinese decor, would make much of a difference considering it doesn't have the same density as the wall?

Everything about Matt's system looks great and I am sure it sounds good. The biggest issues with acoustics are those that are nearest the speakers. If a wall or object is within inches or a couple feet of a speaker if will have a significant deleterious effect on the sound, usually blurring and a lack of spatial acuity. Just remember that you can go crazy with this stuff. He has a beautiful system in a beautiful room that many of his friends can sit, listen to and enjoy. Dedicated listening rooms with heavy acoustic treatments are not usually as socially inviting. If you enjoy the music, you really don't need to do anything. JMO cg
