I feel I can note here my diffuser findings. I would recommend a polycylindric type diffuser like GIK poly. I have them and I like them much better than the QRD type diffusers In my room with horns speakers. The poly is much more gentle and unnoticeable sounding in a good way. It does not try to force the tonality of the sound of the room in its own direction but takes the existing sound signature and works diffusion with that existing sound signature. It's easy to make and cheap if you don't want to buy GIK product just for experimenting. Buy bendy plywood 4'x8' and give it a light curvature and prop up from the floor or mount in the needed area temporarily. The bendy plywood sheet is about $40. Just make sure to get the right direction of grain (bendy comes in two grain directions) so you are getting the needed direction of the curve. Horizontal vs vertical.
