I got an interesting link in the Acoustics Yahoo Newsgroup about something completely new for me: "Early Sound Scattering" (ESS).
The idea is to diffuse your sound from the monitors as soon as they leave the (soffit mounted) speaker.

check this out

Any comments or thoughts ?

Thanks for the link Herwig. So what he's saying is that if you build a 70's style room with a diffuse front end you will have the ideal monitoring setup, anyway that's what I get from the pics.

My concern is the radiation field from the monitors especially in the high end is narrow (30 degrees typically) so I wouldn't expect that much high end diffusion anyway. It may work in the low end though.

cheers

What's actually interesting is the statment that rooms where this design is applied would/should sound similar... I'm sticking to the good ol' fibreglass for now ;)

(will ask around in the newsgroup about it though)
