SoundBites now have the ‘Staple T’

Due to customer demand the “Staple T” hidden staple gun channel has been added to the popular BA300-90 “SoundBite” broadband acoustic panel. I must admit, when we first started to manufacture the BA300-90 a few months back, I was reminded how tedious it is to install panels which don’t have the staple channel. Putting up the panels for the promo shots wasn’t as easy as usual. Velcro tabs took paint off the walls, glue was messy and a bit too permanant! The “Staple T” was developed five years ago to solve the problem of installing thick section acoustic panels quickly and easily and is unique to SoundAcoustics products.

New BA300-90 SoundBites released

I’ve had a bit of break from the blog, so my apologies! We have recently released a new compact panel which I prefer to call an “acoustic block” as it’s pretty chunky. The idea behind this one was to be able to offer a high performance panel at a reasonable price. It offers absorption approaching the SA600-75 broadband panel, as well as looking pretty funky. Being quite a tall panel (90 mm max) it casts a significant acoustic shadow. The value of this in a small footprint panel (300 x 300) is that they can be spaced up to 100 mm apart for increased efficiency. The Soundbite is perfect for treating first reflections in a project studio, listening room or home theatre. They also work well and look great as a ceiling cloud, mounted on MDF. $99 for 12

Gobo, Bass Trap, Vocal Booth!

A customer requested I modify a BT120/80 bass trap so he could use two of them as an vocal isolation area. The rear of the BT120-80 was covered with 3mm MDF, with some also inserted for extra rigidity. When it’s not in use it can be placed in a corner as a bass trap to help with the mix! This also makes a great wide frequency Gobo. If I get any more requests maybe this could go into production.
