Acousonics

Absorbers and diffusers are two of the main design tools for altering the acoustic conditions of a room. In small rooms it is often preferable to control interfering reflections and provide an ambient sound field using diffusion instead of absorption. Diffusion is the re-radiation of an incident sound wave over a wide area. Using sound diffusion as a room acoustic treatment can improve the speech intelligibility and improve the overall listening environment within the room, without adding excessive amounts of sound absorption materials. Based on our experience in acoustic studies since 1978 and in collaboration with a European team of engineers and scientists, we have created a new acoustic diffuser named OCEANOS. These acoustic diffusers help in conserving sound energy, by spreading it around the room and creating a better acoustic environment. OCEANOS is a modern innovative two-dimensional, quadratic acoustic diffuser. Its curved contoured surface resembles the wavy surface of a calm ocean. The aperiodic modulation of asymmetric base shape, offers a more uniform sound diffusion. Its unique artistic form has been developed using QRD array calculation in combination with graphical algorithm editor computational software. Hence, a structural optimization of its complex geometry has been achieved. At the same time, by using ray tracing simulation software, we have optimized the uniform acoustic diffusion and diffraction on its surface. OCEANOS is a thermoformed light weight panel, made of a thermoplastic polymer known as Acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) and can also be produced with fire retardant characteristics according to UN/ECE R 118. OCEANOS can also be made of translucent light diffusing opal acrylic sheet, in order to function as both diffuser and lighting system. On its basic version, OCEANOS diffuser due to its membrane type construction can absorb low frequency sound energy. In case low frequency sound absorption is not desirable, OCEANOS diffuser can be produced with an internal heavy weight overlay, without alteration of its external surface. Basic version includes ceiling tiles diffuser, for easy installation in standard T-bar runner profiles 24/38 ceiling grids. Minimum gap of 40cm over the false ceiling is required. Diffusion panels can be installed in any route direction thanks to their identical form sides. The 90 degree rotation is recommended for better sound diffusion. OCEANOS panels can be also installed on the wall, with four screws and plastic anchors. Another option is using our easy-to-install non-visible hanging device behind the panels.

(Microphonics means noise that is generated when the cable is moved andor tapped when the cabling circuit is a high impedance link.)This cable features extremely low Microphonics and Electrostatic Noise (whole orders of magnitude lower than the usual microphone - linecables) that ensure quietness in your interconnetions.Note: Due to its exceptional Microphonics and Electrostatic Noise qualities, this cable could also prove suitable as an unbalanced phono cartridge cable, especially when you face problems with noise in your analog setup.The connectors used are Neutrik and Switchcraft gold plated.

The Acousonics Big Bass is useful where low frequency absorption is required. The places that mainly have the specific requirements are: Auditoriums, Recording studios, control rooms, concert halls, CD mastering, home theatres, music practice rooms, vocal booths etc. Acousonics Big Bass 60 can be installed at the corners of the room.Since low frequency resonances in a room have their points of maximum or minimum pressure in the corners of the room, bass traps mounted in these positions will be the most efficient solution. For this reason we have designed the Acousonics Big Bass which is corner mounted to reduce the excessive bass in a room. The operating principle of Acousonics Big Bass is based on diaphragmatic element / dence -mass membrane, which is free to vibrate by the low frequency exited bass sound down to 80 Hz. Behind the resonating diaphragmatic absorber there is an air cavity created by the special design from MDF wooden enclosure/cavity.The conic shape form improves its performance in lower frequencies and increases the structural stiffness. The external back surface of the bass trap is made by MDF wooden board or by a black melamine. They can be covered with luxurious airmess fabric in case that its upper or bottom side is visible. Inside the conic shape enclosure there is a special sound absorption acoustic coat made by an  ecological sheep wool or other polyester fibers board. The front side of Acousonics Big Bass comprise a wooden batten skeleton frame covered by a breathable fabric (type air mesh according to our sample color). Acousonics Big Bass plus is specifically designed to achieve maximum sound absorption at wide acoustic frequency range band. Depending on the requirements of each application and in order to achieve wide range frequency absorption, a combination of different sound absorptive materials can be applied.
