Help me hide this.

If you start with sliding doors from the corner forward past the electrical cabinet and from there have a real wall. Do you then have enough space for soundproofing? They can surely also be hung on the front sliding door, the question is just if it can be done nicely.

Not sure of the exact dimensions of my rectangles but the absorbers are 62x120. Depth 10 plus 10cm air gap.

Curious, What is a broadband absorber?

Curious, What is a broadband absorber?

Building a studio to mix in and want to gain control over the acoustics. Broadband absorbers are one of many acoustic elements you can use to ensure you get the most accurate sound reproduction possible. In other words, ensuring that all frequencies are accurately represented. Otherwise, it's a bit like painting pictures blindfolded.

How exact is their placement? I have zero experience in acoustics/studio construction, but it looks like it might be possible to have the two on the right on a new wall that stands about 20 cm in front of the old one. To the left, you could then have two sliding doors also about 20 in front of the old wall, hiding the electrical cabinet, etc. Place the front sliding door to the right and place one of the sound absorbers on it. That should work. Whether it will be good acoustically, I have no clue ;-)

Maybe it's possible to make a hidden door. My father built an entire hidden wall in a corner where water pipes and electricity ran. It was attached with hinges at the bottom and a hidden "latch" that you could reach by cutting a small slit in the wallpaper the day you needed to access it.

OT:
Isn't that a Marantz player peeking out? What other equipment is there?

Can't you build a wall with built-in absorbers? That is, construct the wall as a large absorber (then you can have absorbers for different frequencies in different parts of the wall if you want). In combination with a door or just a curtain on the short side as someone else suggested.

That would be awesome. I'm just afraid it might take up a bit too much space in an already small room... And that it would be expensive to treat the whole wall. But definitely an exciting idea.

Maybe you can make a secret door. My father built a whole secret wall in a corner where there were water pipes and electricity. It was attached with hinges at the bottom and a hidden "catch" you could access by making a small cut in the wallpaper the day you needed to get to it.

Secret door... Yes, but that was kind of my basic idea. To build a box on the left part of the wall that covers everything but can be opened. But still like a wall made of material that can support a few kilos. I don't need to be as secretive as hidden catches under wallpaper. It's okay if it's noticeable that it's an openable box.
