In essence, sounds that you usually hear are already a mixture of sound waves that travel directly to your ears from its source and the indirect sound waves. These indirect sound waves, which are also known as indirect reflected sound, are sound waves that have bounced off from the smooth surfaces of a room.
Generally, these reflected sound waves can have good and bad effects. In a way, they can improve sound quality or the way you hear a particular sound. As evident in movie theaters and concert halls, reflected sounds can add a certain pleasant spaciousness to the sound. On the other hand, these sound reflections can also distort the quality of sound mainly because it has the tendency to amplify certain notes while masking other notes.
In order to regulate these sound reflections, you need to learn how to soundproof because it’,s best to have high-quality sound absorbing foam installed in a room. Sound absorbing foam is great for broadcast studios, commercial recording studios, auditoriums, conference rooms, gymnasiums, offices and even in restaurants.
Sound absorbing foam is a perfect solution for any place that has reverberation (echo) issues. Most types of sound absorbing foam can absorb sounds that are generated at varying frequencies.
The best type of sound absorbing foam is one made with melamine foam core and wrapped in a non-woven fabric core covering. Since this material offers consistent firmness and density, it has the capacity to improve acoustic performance. However, despite being firm and dense, sound absorbing foam made of such material is also lightweight. This makes it easier for anyone to attach the foam to any surface and it won’,t require the use of any complicated tools or material.
Aside from offering easy installation and durability, sound absorbing foam is also sold in a wide range of colors. You can easily choose something that matches the color of a particular room, or something that complements it so it won’,t look tacky or out of place. Instead of providing additional visual nuisance, choosing the right color of sound absorbing foam can also enhance a room’,s design. The foam can also make a room less prone to minor accidents, especially if the room is often visited by children. Just in case kids accidentally fall and hit their heads on walls, they won’,t necessarily end up having a large bump on the forehead. Finally, sound absorbing foam is highly flexible. It can be wrapped around curved walls and even around thin columns or posts. So, you won’,t have to experience difficulty when you install it in rooms with complicated design details.
However, you have to make sure that the brand of sound absorbing foam you choose has an excellent flammability rating just to keep things safe.
