Sorry, on my phone the black box behind the speaker stand looks like a combo amp. To answer your question, yes try it where I suggest. A pretty decent hi-fi sound can be got in a cube shaped room by having the speakers firing diagonally in the room. The acoustic reflections go all over the place rather than up and down the room. I would expect the same thing to happen with a guitar amp but I never tried this for myself. Besides this test costs nothing except a half hour moving and testing of kit.....

Good God man! That room looks more like a prison cell than a studio. If that is what it takes to get an echo free room, I am outta here as they say.

I may rearrange the room again to how most people position their monitors to face the length of the room and just experiment with different panels whenever I get hold of any.
The panels in my room cost me around £300 to build, iirc.
I have 8 of them around my room, and it sounds really good in there for mixing
I'm presuming I'll need 2 panels on either side of the window then on the side I'm standing on?
Also is it advisable to mix DIY panels and ones from GIK? Say if I got 3 from them and built 3 of my own?
Both monitor stands are approx 3 inches away from the wall - don't know if you can see it well but I have pulled them forward and turned them inwards slightly.
Ok so with those panels you've drawn in they'll need to tuck in triangularly into the corners like bass traps would?
I know you guys have advised against the foam tiles but they are being delivered tomorrow and as there's not much else in the room I'll still give it a go til I get some panels.
I'm probably going to have say I was wrong to consider these, and I hope to be getting hold of the proper panels to mount on the wall within the next few months.
I'll keep hold of the foam tiles anyway. Dunno what I'd use them for though.
This is where I'd want the panels to be anyway right? Just behind the monitors?
If I do want to fix it is it a case of some easy filler to smooth over then a few coats of paint?
