Third. Locking panels together:

The ends of each panel are designed to “peel” away (see figure 2), allowing the panels to be locked together. This creates a continuous acoustical wall. Panels can then be hinged up to 60°. When removing these pieces, we suggest labeling both the panel and the end cap in a location that will be concealed once connected. This will allow you to replace the end caps without them being mismatched. Our cutting tolerance can vary slightly; end caps that are mismatched with panels may

not exactly match, and thus may not be a perfect fit (too loose). Decide which set of panels are to be interconnected and remove the adjacent end pieces. Must be male to female for this to work. If you need to, just flip the MAX-Wall panel over so the panels

MaleFemale correctly connect male to female (figure 3).

If ends of panels are adjacent, but hinged greater than 60° (actually 120° for you math-

ematicians), leave the end caps on and connect the panels together with long pins (clothing, t-pins, etc.) or purchase our optional MAX-Wall Corner Couplers. If the ends of the panels are at the end of your setup, we suggest leaving them on for appearance reasons!

Optional Accessories:

1.Window Unit: 20” x 48” MAX-Wall panel with an 18” x 12” Plexiglass window (1⁄4” thick). The MAX-Wall support stand can be adjusted so you can attach a microphone gooseneck (as pictured).

2.MAX-Wall Corner Couplers Designed to allow panels to be attached at a 90° (80° to 100°) angle.

MAX-Wall Tips:

End Cap

1.Some panels may show a slight variation in color/shade. This is due to the

direction of the cut from our production saw. Pull all of the panels out of the box(es) and mix/match the best combinations. We suggest the closest matches be used on the same stand

for color consistency.

2.If you need to extend the height of the MAX-Wall beyond the capabilities of the MAX-Wall support stand, 5/8” PVC pipe can be placed over the smaller diameter top of the stand and cut to a height to sup- port panels above normal height.

3.A more “curved” environment (figure 4). If you desire the MAX-Wall to “surround” you beyond the normal hinging of the panels, you can “fracture” the hole lock in the center of the panel, creating a 45° with an individual panel. Be aware that the hole lock can be restored, but may not

be as strong or attractive as before. The “frac- tured” panels are best used when the ends are interlocked with other panels to prevent sagging.

4.Keep the shipping

box(es) for storage if the MAX-Wall will be

moved around or used intermittently.

MAX-Wall specifications

Auralex Acoustics MAX-Wall is a revolutionary solution designed to tackle acoustic challenges in various environments, such as recording studios, home theaters, and performance spaces. This modular wall system enhances sound quality by effectively managing sound reflections, absorption, and diffusion.

One of the standout features of the MAX-Wall is its customizable design. Users can select from various materials, colors, and textures to create a tailored solution that fits not only their acoustic needs but also their aesthetic preferences. The system can be easily adapted to different room sizes and shapes, providing versatility without compromising on performance.

The technology behind the MAX-Wall incorporates advanced acoustic principles. Each panel is constructed with high-density fiberglass, offering superior sound absorption properties. This material minimizes unwanted reflections and reverberation, making it ideal for recording applications where clarity and precision are paramount. Additionally, the MAX-Wall's innovative design allows for air pockets within the panels, further enhancing their ability to mitigate sound transmission.

Another key characteristic of the MAX-Wall is its easy installation process. The wall system is designed for quick assembly and disassembly, allowing users to reconfigure their space as needed. This makes it particularly appealing for mobile setups or temporary installations, such as events or exhibitions.

Moreover, the MAX-Wall offers a modular approach, enabling users to add or remove panels based on specific acoustic requirements. This adaptability ensures that users can optimize their environment as needs evolve, without a complete overhaul.

In summary, Auralex Acoustics MAX-Wall stands out in the realm of acoustic treatment solutions due to its combination of customization, advanced sound absorption technology, and modular design. It serves as a practical option for anyone looking to enhance their auditory space, whether in professional studios or personal home settings. With MAX-Wall, achieving the perfect sound environment is within reach.
