Eric I have to ask if you have considering turning the room itself into the cabinet? A false wall always looks better, and the benifits of flush mounted speakers and TVs are aperent to all that hear the eveness of your speakers without all the crazy reflections. Most cabinets I have seen were...
I would use drywall adheasive or liquid nails for projects. these glues will also couple the carpets mass and add the glues own mass to your walls and help deaden their resonances as well as stopping unwanted reflections. I would use a concrete spatula with teeth to spread it evenly over the...
