Design Level.1.
Design for Home Theaters; Listening Rooms; Media Rooms and Multi-purpose Rooms where sound isolation is not a consideration. This level is also restricted to design for rectangular rooms in a pre-existing space, as opposed to new construction. No Dimensional Analysis is included in this level.
This is our entry level, and is for clients who do not wish to spend a lot of money on the construction/build-out, requiring only the critical information for the existing room’s optimum setup for the best possible sonic performance. This would include speaker placement and optimum listening location, together with information for any basic acoustical treatments and/or devices such as absorption and diffusion panels and LF (Low Frequency) Traps et cetera, including their placement to get the best possible acoustical interaction between the speakers and the room.
Design documentation: Floor Plan, drawings and schematics for assembly are provided.
