That's a great idea, Skip. Curtains spaced away from the wall do a pretty good job of trapping midrange and treble sound, reducing reflections. So if your walls beside or behind the speakers have windows, using curtains is a good way to provide acoustic absorbtion without drawing attention. Your approach, using a heavier rug suspended a few inches away, would provide even more attenuation and possibly be more effective at lower frequency. Good idea.
