Selecting Panel Thickness
Understanding the distinction between the 1-inch and 2-inch Acoustic ART Wall Panels is key to optimizing your space not only visually but also acoustically. Here's what you need to know to make the best choice for your environment:
-
1-inch Panels: These are excellent for spaces that primarily encounter mid to high-frequency sounds. Typical sources include human voices, ringing phones, or background music. The 1-inch thickness effectively minimizes echo and clarifies speech, making it a perfect match for residential settings like living rooms and home offices, or professional environments such as classrooms and board rooms. If your main concern is reducing reverberation and enhancing clarity for conversations or background noise, this thickness is ideal.
-
2-inch Panels: Designed for more comprehensive sound absorption, these panels excel in environments exposed to a wider range of frequencies, especially lower ones. Lower frequencies are often found in commercial spaces, such as restaurants or gyms, where there's a mix of music, machinery, and group conversations. The 2-inch thickness tackles deeper sounds like bass frequencies from music or the boom of industrial equipment, making them particularly suitable for recording studios, open-plan offices, and entertainment venues. If your space requires a reduction in both echo and fuller, richer sound disturbances, opt for the 2-inch option.
Frequency Considerations:
-
The 1-inch panel predominantly targets higher frequencies, which include the range of human speech and many everyday noises. These panels help clean up the sound in a room by reducing echoes and making speech more intelligible.
-
The 2-inch panel, with its greater depth, absorbs a broader spectrum of sound waves, especially effective at mitigating lower frequencies along with the mid to high range. This makes the environment more acoustically balanced, reducing the intrusion of bass sounds and creating a more focused auditory scene.
