I wasn’t singling anyone out, just using a recent post as a typical example of the focus on gear. You seem to have taken it very personally. I deliberately didn’t mention the choice of music!
🙄
I’ll bite though, your ‘friend’ clearly only has a rudimentary grasp of acoustics (and can’t see the bass trapping at the back of the room), is stating the obvious with regards to it being an amateur installation, mid use in a domestic setting and sounds like they’re pretending to be knowledgable about speakers.I also have some waterfall graphs somewhere that quantify the difference between pre and post treatment. There are still compromises (large windows and nearly square cross section aren’t ideal) but the room doesn’t ring, bass is much flatter and it’s still lively enough to get nice takes of acoustic instruments.

See I would say that looks like a great system,
But my studio engineer friend reckons that "room treatment" is doing next to nothing, pointless even,
No bass traps in the corners that would make the most difference, nothing in the ceiling corners either, and two uncovered glass windows for the sound to reflect off, and he said "your speakers are shit" he recommends PMC or at the very least Yamahas, he also pointed out that the installation was messy and amateurish...
But what the fuck does he know? if it makes you happy that that is all that matters,
Just like that guy with the oil rig and space rockets living room.
Taking the piss out of the snake oil hifi scene is fine,
But singling out someone and being a cunt about them is just being a cunt.
