Definitely accoustic tiles - in our dining room at Jackson Place Coho! Armstrong. Suggested by accoustic technician. Reduced the reverb by at least 60%. Carpet was deemed too hard to keep clean. Took two days (6-8 hours) of assemby line work party in 2hour shifts w/ one paid handy man for approx. 800sf. HUGE difference. We trimmed it out with pre-painted 1/4 round glued (not nailed - they fell down) in place. Left to cure 1 day. Fabulous - our hearing challenged members can now participate more fully. Also installed metal mini blinds on all the windows (3 sides of the room). The curved shape of the slat "confuses" the sound wave. Wer actually did this first and noticed an immediate difference, too.

(I have four kids... this sounds like a great suggestion somedays!) What about accoustic tiles? Do narrower tables really help? Any accoustic engineers out there?
