Because my room is asymmetrical, the treatment is not conventional in terms of mirror image but sounds so much better this way.
Lived with an asymmetrical room for longer than I care to remember. Can you place some free standing traps on stands in a symmetrical manner and move them out of the way if needed?

Sure can and will probably end up finishing this way as that is what I have tried over the last 2 days funnily enough

Those monsters look good. Love the Focal's. Why did you end up removing the panels from behind your listening position? Did you ever get all the tweaking finished?

Nice. Good looking!

GIK panels have to be one of my highest bang-for-the-buck audio improvements.
