Acoustic diffusers

By definition, acoustic diffusers are mechanical elements designed to evenly dissipate the energy of sound waves, including to create the optimal level of sound energy in a particular room. Diffusers are mounted in a variety of finishing materials in the form of panels. Thus, they can be used to create the perfect sound background in almost any room. Especially considering the fact that externally panels with diffusers are made in a variety of colors and aesthetic solutions.

Rooms where acoustic diffusers are commonly used:

• professional as well as home recording studios;
• interiors, theatres, cinemas, concert halls;
• meeting rooms, office space, conference and meeting rooms;
• separate premises in the buildings of television and radio companies;
• classrooms in educational institutions.

A distinctive feature of modern acoustic diffusers is the fact that their installation does not take much time, as well as the fact that their installation does not require major building repairs. Panels with acoustic diffusers can be selected for almost any area, as well as walls of any configuration (building form). The use of modern acoustic diffusers provides the following advantages for the room:

• For rooms with an area of more than 25 square meters, diffusers make it possible to eliminate the unpleasant sound effect of the echo (it is also called flutter). This is achieved by the usual absorption of the energy of sound waves.
• For recording studios, the use of diffusers can provide high definition speech and musical accompaniment, as well as maintain a constant proper level of musical articulation.
• Prevent resonance in the music studio, which eliminates the possibility of deterioration in the quality of the recording, whether it be a voice or a musical instrument.

When choosing a brand of one or another acoustic diffuser, the following parameters must be taken into account:

• Panel size. Most of these panels are square in shape. For example, a popular size is 500 by 500 mm. The panel must be of the optimal size, taking into account the area to be processed.
• fastening method. Many modern diffuser panels have a double-sided adhesive surface. This increases the convenience of mounting the panel in a specific location.
• Price. You should not buy frankly cheap diffusers, because they are ineffective, and their life is minimal.
