Room acoustics is a complex subject, it has evolved over many years to include such tools as Helmholtz resonators, ebony wood, tiny little bowl acoustic resonators, room echo absorbers, corner treatments, diffusers, Tube Traps, crystals, constrained layer dampers, and a boatload of other audiophile devices. There are many different acoustic issues, some of which may be counter-intuitive, that should be addressed separately.

One should map out the existing room acoustics using test tones and SPL meter to determine problem areas. There is the related issue of speaker placement, which itself evolves along with the application of room treatments. Looking at room acoustics as a long-term project, be prepared to relocate speakers along with your program of room treatment.
