Thanks, Steve and Fran. (And everyone else who has posted!)

You don't need to be a acoustic designer with measurements and infinitie possibility computations. Paying very close attention to what your space sounds like works.
Rules:
A successful space is a combination of absorption and diffusion.
Reduce hard flat surfaces by making them with absorption or diffusion.
Don't have parallel surfaces that are hard.
Don't put up too much foam.
Ceilings and floors count as well as walls.
Here you see rugs, foam, an entire wall of LPs for diffusion (and storage), a gray muslin backdrop (to the right), ceiling tiles, some covered in foam. Even the couch does it's part.

Hmmm, hope this pix makes it. It's not showing in preview.
