Installation Guidelines

Thank you for purchasing pArtScience™ SpaceArray™, the next generation of acoustical treatments from Auralex® Acoustics. Designed by Russ Berger, pArtScience SpaceArray diffusors evenly and randomly disperse sound waves to provide a consistent acoustical environment in any room. Unlike other high-end diffusors, the SpaceArray employs

aquasi-random array using state of-the-art engineering techniques, and carefully selected, high-quality materials for superior sound diffusion.

HOutstanding Performance: Eliminates flutter echoes and other acoustical anomalies without removing acoustical energy from the space.

HQuasi-Random Array: Randomization of reflections evenly distributes sound in a space, taking the guesswork out of microphone placement and mixing. It just sounds better!

HModular: 2’ by 2’ panels used in a variety of applications and placement options, including “T-Bar” grids.

HEasy Installation: Strong and lightweight, can be mounted in minutes on the wall or ceiling.

HBeautiful Solid Wood Construction: Widely used for musical instruments and decorative finishes for over 1000 years, Paulownia wood has one of the highest strength-to-weight ratios of any wood in the world.

Most spaces can benefit from the introduction of properly designed and located diffusion; only the quantity and placement varies. Diffusion has been successfully implemented in studios, control rooms, concert halls, gymnasiums, meeting rooms, sanctuaries, and more. The proper balance of diffusive and absorptive surfaces varies with room size and function, so your dealer or Auralex representative will be glad to assist you in choosing the proper type and quantity of diffusors and can advise you as to the best location for the devices in your particular space.

Feel free to contact an Auralex Application Specialist via email at appsupport@auralex.com or call 1-800-95-WEDGE. For best results, fill out a Personalized Room Analysis Form (http://www.auralex.com/pcf/) before calling so the application specialist can properly assist you.

Acoustical Diffusor specifications

Auralex Acoustics is renowned for its commitment to enhancing sound quality in various environments through innovative acoustic treatment solutions. One of their standout products is the Auralex Acoustical Diffusor, designed to improve sound clarity and ambiance in music studios, home theaters, and professional recording spaces.

The Auralex Acoustical Diffusor plays a crucial role in controlling sound reflections and reducing excessive echoes. Its primary function is to scatter sound waves, allowing for a more even distribution of sound energy throughout a room. Unlike traditional absorptive panels that reduce overall sound levels, diffusors maintain the live acoustic character of a space while minimizing harsh frequencies that can lead to listener fatigue.

One of the key features of the Auralex Acoustical Diffusor is its construction from high-density foam, which is both lightweight and robust. This material is not only effective at diffusing sound but also contributes to an aesthetically pleasing environment. The diffusor comes in various shapes and designs, allowing customers to select a style that matches their specific acoustic needs and room decor.

Auralex employs advanced design technologies in crafting their diffusors. Utilizing mathematical algorithms, they create specific surface patterns that enhance diffusion across a wide frequency range. This precision engineering ensures that sound is dispersed evenly, enabling clearer sound reproduction, whether it is music, dialogue, or environmental sounds.

Moreover, Auralex Acoustical Diffusors are often designed to be easy to install. Many models come with adhesive backing, allowing users to apply them directly to walls or ceilings without the need for complicated mounting systems. This user-friendly design makes it accessible for both professional audio engineers and enthusiastic hobbyists to improve their sound environments.

The diffusors are also available in various models, including Quadratic Residue Diffusors (QRD) and Skyline Diffusors, each tailored to address different acoustic challenges. The QRD design is particularly adept at managing mid to high frequencies, while the Skyline model offers superior diffusion across a broader range of frequencies.

In conclusion, Auralex Acoustics’ commitment to sound quality is epitomized in their Acoustical Diffusor, blending innovative design with effective sound management capabilities. Whether for enhancing recordings in a studio or improving acoustic quality in a home theater, these diffusors represent a valuable asset for anyone striving for optimal auditory experiences.
