Project 3 : My Office

125.6+15.4+50.8=$191.8

We used the same techniques for both rooms however I only had one mattress in my room compared to the 2 plus an air mattress in Alex's. Alex's room had a huge transformation in the acoustics compared to my room. Both rooms still had flutter in the ceiling as we were unable to place treatment that high on the walls but for speech Alex's sounded great while mine was usable but not ideal. 

For my room we used a blanket that was held up by two poles that were lent against the cupboard. We used one double mattress on the wall opposite the window and we placed acoustic boards in the corners wherer the desk was placed. Along with placing couch cushions in the corner of the door alcove.

In the process of treating my room I removed the second desk and moved the main desk to be centred with the wall. I also swapped the left and right speakers so all the connections were at one end closer to each other. I made sure to revers the left and right on the interface so it was still the correct stereo image. In doing so I noticed that the left speaker which was the right speaker now sounds much brighter than the original left speaker. Im not sure what the cause of this is but I do have a couple of ideas that could be creating this difference. 

For the past 8 months my desk has been in the same position slightly left of centre on the wall. I believe that due to not being exactly centre I have grown accustom to hearing the slight delay in the sound bouncing off the walls and my brain has adjusted to centre the sound based off of that. And now that everything is centred my brain may need to re adjust to hearing no delay in the sound bouncing off the walls.
