Architectural Acoustics is the study of how sound propagates within
a man made structure. Be it a concert hall, house of worship,
historical renovation or office building,
the architectural design or renovation of the space will have a significant affect
on how sound created in that space, will be perceived. This concept
is generally well accepted in the world of concert hall or church
design, however, when it comes to the corporate boardroom, conference
room or training facility, acoustics is generally an after-thought.
The plain truth is that the audio performance of the most sophisticated
audio, audiovisual or videoconferencing systems can be rendered second rate
due to poor room acoustics.
Although Abel Consulting has a proven record of excellence in all
types of architectural acoustic design from theaters, churches and
historical renovations
to boardrooms and conference centers, our true value lies in correctly
matching the acoustics of a particular venue to the audio system
design we have created. Because we are expert in both acoustical
design and system design, we can offer our clients not only the
cost savings that 'one stop shopping' can afford, but a system/venue
synergy that often alludes other single service consulting firms.
