As I build up my home studio and do acoustic tests, I am starting to notice that much of this grandular detail surrounding the sound acoustic treatment of a room is just a load of BS.
As you seem to feel that the more esoteric aspects of control room acoustics are bullshit, maybe you should present your hypothesis here for professional review and comment. I'm sure they would.

That still doesn't tell me what you are using them to tell you. Who knows, maybe you can hear 2f1 - f2. I can't.
No shit, ya' grumpy bastard Sorry for russling feathers, but there's a variety of ways to do research when insulating and building a room.
Let me correct you, its actually "grumpy ole fart". Bastard is as highly subjective and inaccurate as your ears. Really though, you didn't russle my feathers. I'm grown accustomed to my affliction as well as home studio builders.
However, your opinion is duly noted, and while possibly shared by others, is niether profound or enlightening. As to listening while building, granted, you may hear things that tell you something. I never said they wouldn't. It's WHAT they tell you that may be lacking. In the case of doubling mass with little improvement, I doubt if your ears can tell you why. Although, this may help you discover it.

Brian Daytons lab results of many tests can be found with a simple search on the studiotips bbs. I suggest reading his insight as it is truly informative in regards to the nature of this subject among others.
LOL, one must be able to laugh at oneself ..
Nice doodle rick, I bet you have been waiting a while to use that one. Now you got you rib kick in, I hope you feel better, Grumpy man.
True, I was laughing at my own thought when this concept came to my attention. However, the doodle was a consequence of your remark, so I drew
it to illlustrate. Humor was the intent, and I'm pleased it succeeded. As to my grumpy attitude, it depends on whether I've had my coffee or not. Actully, I'm quite happy and pleasant to be around most of the time.
I tried to share something with you that I felt was of value , regardless if it appears worthless to you.
