Wally,

There's plenty of sources online regarding room acoustics that I won't
get into a big dialog here.  But I'm of the impression that Aurelex
bass traps are pretty "entry-level" in terms of broadband
absorption...you should be looking for bass traps that are either of
higher density and thickness; check out RealTraps.com, rpginc.com, and
even Echobusters.com for more effective bass trapping (the EB Phase 4's
are much better than the Bass Busters)...I think particularly because of
your speaker placement, bass trapping is really the most important thing
you should be addressing.  Aurelex is decent enough for 1st reflection
points, but rigid-fiberglass products are usually more effective than
foam-based products....GIKAcoustics.com or Acousticsfirst.com are good
sources for low-priced rigid fiberglass products.

As mentioned, I hope I didn't come across as being overly negative or
anything like that.  I can definitely tell that getting it right is
important to you...was just surprised to see such great high end gear
surrounded by what is essentially budget-room-treatments when room
acoustics are easily your most important "component" in your
system...and highdungeon's comment made me think about making a
comment...
