What acoustic panels are made of (and why it matters)
An acoustic panel is a functional core, a finish and a mounting method. The core sets which frequencies it controls; the materials set its fire rating; the mounting can change performance. Read more...
Panel mounting: bonded vs screw-fixed (and how it changes absorption)
How a panel is fixed changes its performance. Bonding damps resonance for a clean reflector; screw-only lets it resonate and absorb more. C-ATS measured both. Read more...
