Auralex Studiofoam Metro Panels offer a slightly different variety of absorptive qualities than other Studiofoam products. Featuring different height protrusions that serve to spread reflective sound energy across the time domain while absorbing a slightly different slice of the frequency spectrum.
Benefits:
- Eliminates standing waves and flutter echoes
- Reduces unwanted reflections
- Decreases slap-back and room ring
- Softens wavefronts as well as absorbing
- Creates a more ‘live’ sounding space
Metro Panels are designed so that it takes different lengths of time for sound waves to travel through each of the different sections of the panel, rebound from the surface behind and travel back through the Metro into the treated room. This affects the results of the acoustic treatment by softening wavefronts and rather than just absorbing them.
The overall effect is a more ‘live’ and ‘musical’ sounding room - often desired for tracking as well as listening rooms. A room treated with 2” Metro Panels will retain more of it’s ‘live feel’ than if treated with a stronger absorber like 4” Wedge or Pyramid panels and when coupled with the right amount of Metro LENRD Bass Traps, a more natural sounding and rounded acoustic response can be achieved.
Qty. Per Box: 12 - 2” thick 2’ x 4’ panels (1 box covers 8.9 m2)
