Improving home theater acoustics

Tips and products for your own Home Cinema Bioscoop
Watching movies at home in a room completely furnished as a cinema must meet two important requirements; Acoustic insulation against low-frequency noise, so as not to disturb the neighbors, and good room acoustics so that no reverberation is present. 

Sound insulation (keep sound in and out)
This means mounting floating walls and ceilings using Merfoflex Intermediate Rails and sufficient absorbing surfaces to prevent reverberation. To avoid impact noises from speakers and subwoofers, you can install a Floating floor or set the speakers to Mutes. Please note that these sources mainly spread airborne noise, the Merfoflex products are the solution here.

Sound absorption (room acoustics, reduce reverberation)
The most popular absorption product for the room acoustics for a home cinema is the Akotherm GG, a black absorption material with high absorption values for both walls and ceilings. For a more spatial effect, it is nicer to mount Silent Office Ceiling Island. These are floating absorption elements mounted on supplied cables. On the page with space Acoustic products you will find our range for improving acoustics.
