Acoustic Treatment Materials
Decor-compatible acoustic treatment products for the MediaVerse studio complex. Products selected for their combination of measurable acoustic performance, professional-grade build quality, and visual integration with modern studio interiors.
Absorption Panels
Broadband absorbers for first-reflection control, RT60 reduction, and flutter-echo elimination. NRC ratings indicate the fraction of incident sound energy absorbed (1.0 = total absorption).
Primacoustic Broadway Broadband
High-NRC fabric-wrapped fiberglass panel. Industry standard in professional recording studios worldwide. Available in multiple fabric colors for visual coordination.
ATS Acoustic Panel
Budget-friendly NRC 1.0 panel with custom fabric options. Solid acoustic performance at a lower price point, widely used in project studios and post-production rooms.
Vicoustic Flat Panel VMT
Premium European-manufactured fabric-wrapped panel. Available in custom sizes and premium fabric finishes. Engineered for demanding critical listening environments.
Art3d Decorative 3D Wall Panels
Geometric patterned panels in PVC or plant fiber. Paintable surface allows custom color matching. Adds visual depth and texture while providing moderate absorption.
Bass Traps
Low-frequency absorbers designed for corner mounting. Corner placement doubles effective absorption depth through pressure-zone loading, extending control down to the room's fundamental modes.
GIK Acoustics Tri-Trap
Corner-mount triangular bass trap with broadband absorption down to 40 Hz. Fabric-wrapped for clean visual integration. Widely specified in professional studio design.
Primacoustic FullTrap
Floor-to-ceiling corner trap with integrated scatter plate for simultaneous bass absorption and high-frequency diffusion. Dual-function design reduces total treatment count.
ATS Corner Bass Trap
Triangular corner bass trap with fiberglass core. Effective broadband low-frequency absorption at a competitive price point. Fabric-wrapped with clean edges.
Diffusers
Scattering elements that redistribute sound energy without absorbing it. Used at rear walls and ceiling positions to maintain liveness while eliminating flutter echoes and comb filtering.
RPG BAD Panel
Binary amplitude diffusion panel with broadband 400-4000 Hz scattering. Slim profile mounts directly to wall surfaces. Paintable face allows full color customization.
RPG Skyline
Iconic 2D QRD skyline diffuser effective from 600 Hz upward. The distinctive cityscape profile has become a visual signature of professional acoustic spaces worldwide.
GIK Acoustics Gotham N23
2D quadratic diffuser in solid wood with furniture-grade finish. Effective from 800 Hz upward. Premium build quality suitable for high-end control rooms and mastering suites.
Decorative Acoustic Solutions
Products engineered to serve dual roles as both acoustic treatment and interior design elements. Lower NRC ratings compared to dedicated absorbers, but appropriate for spaces where visual presentation is weighted equally with acoustic performance.
Vicoustic Multifuser DC2
Hybrid panel combining diffusion and absorption in a single unit. Premium finish with multiple color options. Engineered for spaces requiring both acoustic control and visual refinement.
Felt Right Acoustic Tiles
Peel-and-stick felt tiles available in custom patterns and colors. Moderate NRC rating with unlimited design possibilities. No specialized mounting hardware required.
Kirei EchoPanel
Recycled PET acoustic panels that are custom-cuttable for bespoke installations. Colorful, lightweight, and sustainable. Moderate absorption with strong environmental credentials.
Procurement Notes
Logistics considerations for sourcing acoustic treatment materials to Damascus, Syria. Lead times and availability are subject to change based on international shipping conditions and supplier inventory.
International Shipping to Syria
Direct freight forwarding from EU or US suppliers is available but subject to extended customs clearance timelines. Consolidate orders to minimize per-unit shipping costs. Verify current import regulations and any applicable duties before placing orders. Sea freight is more economical for bulk panel orders; air freight recommended only for time-critical items.
Recommended Suppliers
Thomann (EU) -- Extensive pro-audio and acoustic treatment catalog. Ships internationally from Germany. Competitive EU pricing.
Sweetwater (US) -- Wide selection with international shipping options. Strong technical support for product selection.
Alibaba -- Direct from manufacturers. Best for bulk orders of generic materials (mineral wool, fabric, mounting hardware). Verify acoustic specifications independently.
Expected Lead Times
Standard products: 4-8 weeks from order to site delivery. Includes manufacturing, consolidation, and international transit.
Custom orders: 8-12 weeks. Custom fabric selections, non-standard sizes, and special finishes require additional manufacturing lead time.
Order acoustic treatment early in the construction timeline to prevent schedule delays during the finishing phase.
