we've just emptied our bathroom, a couple of towels and some smelly bath thingies, and a couple of baskets of Day Nurse, sun cream and plasters. open the door and it sounds like an aircraft hanger! Something to bear in mind when setting up your listening room methinks.
Food for thought

I'm not too sure my good lady wife would be too keen on baskets of Day Nurse around the living room... 
But seriously, I'm with you - I went for a demo at a local dealer, whose listening room was not overly "soft". My lounge has thick carpet, velvet curtains, big sofa. The difference between the sound of my system at home and in their dem room was staggering...

Especially if your living room is tiled.

The curtains at the end should help any major reflections, and would probably be enough. My floor is only carpeted as I'm a soft type and don't like cold feet (which is a pretty normal occurance for 8 months of the year in Bristol, UK!)
