Hi, a tricky subject. I have concrete floors. I found the best combination was to place a area rug between my listening position and the speakers and leave the rest alone. I have various other fixes like large stuffed furniture, some wall coverings and something that I originally thought might be bad....a high (9 foot that is slightly sloped to the side) popcorn ceiling. Since the main speakers are ESLs everything matters.

Good Listening
