Soundproofing a Bar

Acoustic Challenge

 
We've all been there.   A loud uncomfortable social environment that finds us straining to hold conversation in a loud bar filled with people.   The acoustic challenges increase exponentially with alcohol consumption.  Some favor the noise, others opt to never return to the venue.  Repeat business is threatened, the bar owner seeks relief from the noise.

Soundproofing Treatment
 

By introducing a set of decorative, fire rated wall or ceiling sound panels into the bar, the sound wave reflections can be captured and converted.  By cleaning the background noise out of the facility, the treatment delivers greater clarity to original sound.  This reduces the need to raise conversational tones over the level of background noise, and brings the sound values in the room to a more favorable level.   Sound panel placement is regardless, so long as appropriate levels are introduced into the room.   For most bars and nightclubs, the Ceiling Clouds are the product of choice, as they allow the walls to remain as they are currently designed.

Acoustic Results

By capturing echoes, sound wave reflections will die off within 2 seconds, which is the acceptable level to human ear.   Without the sound panel treatment, the echoes will carry for up to 10 seconds, which causes the dreaded "cocktail party effect".   By placing the right amount of the right panel treatment into your room, the sound intensity drops to more favorable levels, creating a more comfortable environment for the patrons within the room, and more protection for neighbors nearby.

For interior room acoustics, the Ceiling Clouds are the ideal choice, as they allow you to keep the walls as they are.   Clouds simply float out over the room, tight to the ceiling, in even site lines to add a nice design to the bar, while mitigating the noise.
