In churches, synagogues and worship centers large or small, words and music can sound incomprehensible to the congregation if sound is not properly controlled.
- Poor sound quality is common in churches because of an abundance of hard surface materials. Brick, marble, stone, tile, glass, wood and sheet rock are all acoustically reflective.
- Sound waves bounce back and forth between parallel surfaces, creating a confusion of noise until they finally decay. Even the most strategically-placed speakers and microphones will not compensate for poor acoustics.
- Every room needs some absorptive materials and some reflective materials to get the right acoustic mix for the room’s intended purpose.
- The challenge is to find that balance.
- Apocalypse Acoustics Wall Panels and Acoustic Panels from Acube Acoustics, inc. are designed to absorb airborne sound energy and reduce a room’s overall noise, reverberation and standing waves—creating interiors that reduce the din without sacrificing the divine.
