SOUND ABSORPTION: How Acoustical
Panels Improve Sound
Sound absorbers reduce
reverberation and echo to improve speech
intelligibility and music clarity. Sound
absorption materials are generally lightweight,
thick and porous. These materials vary, in
thickness and shape, to meet specific sound
control requirements from bass traps, speech
intelligibility, to high
frequency control. When combined with barrier
materials, absorbers work to isolate, or
"soundproof", an acoustical space from outside
noise as well as prevent interior sound from
escaping. More on Sound

DIFFUSING /
SCATTERING SOUND: Sound
Diffusion Explained
Diffusers scatter sound rather
than absorbing it. Diffusion lessens the
intensity of sound by dispersing and redirecting
its
energy over an expanded area. A diffusive
room will sound larger and more open with
improved clarity.

Controlling Mechanical Sound
Transmission
Noise and sound barriers are
dense, massive, heavy materials used to block
the transmission of airborne sound, such as
conversation, music, and traffic noise, through
walls. Barrier materials can be aided by the use
of absorbers, resilient clips, isolation
hangers, vibration pads and floor underlayment.
These materials combine to isolate noise at its
source and prevent structure-borne transmission
of sound through building vibration.
