ACOUSTICAL RESOURCES SITEMAP INTERACTIVE SYSTEM: QUADRATIC SOUND DIFFUSERS
ABOUT AR ABSORBERS DIFFUSERS REFLECTORS DATA QUOTATION
Quadratic Sound Diffusers are designed for any music facilities requiring outstanding acoustical performance. Quadratic Diffusers offer maximum sound diffusion with minimum sound absorption over a broad sound band providing for balanced sound throughout the room. They can be used in conjunction with AR's Interactive System absorber wall panels which help control room liveliness.
Efficient Sound Diffuser

Product Description:
Quadratic Sound Diffuser Panels are constructed of rigid fiberglass, molded in a one-piece special shape with a select set of well depths. Based on quadratic residue sequences of an elementary number theory, sound from any direction can be uniformly scattered into many directions with the quadratic diffuser. Diffusers help maintain the clarity and help to eliminate poor sound reflection patterns from flat ceiling surfaces.
