The Acoustical Resonator® is a Helmholtz Type Resonator which achieves outstanding
absorption performance at low frequencies.
Commonly, reverberation within low frequency range tends to be much longer than the rest of
the spectrum. Consequently, the quality of the sound perceived is poor, unbalanced, “boomy”,
and airless. The Acoustical Resonator® is a powerful element to control the excess of
reverberation, as well as modal interference in any acoustical environment. Correctly tuned, it
is one of the most effective low frequency absorbers available. The sound not absorbed is re-
radiated from the resonator openings to the room in a hemispherical pattern resulting in energy
being diffused, something very desirable in low frequencies.
The Acoustical Resonator® is made of MDF. Standard finishes are: unfinished wood, light
wood, dark wood or colored lacquer. Please contact Malvicino Design Group for special color
matching.
The Acoustical Resonator® is manufactured under custom specs for every room. Standard
dimensions are: 2'-0" (0.61m) wide by 4'-0" (1.22m) high. Please contact MBR Design Group
to submit your room information.
The Acoustical Resonator® installation can be implemented to any wall via customized "J"
Type clips. Two pairs of clips per unit are supplied. A real panel size template with pre-drilled
holes is also provided in order to accommodate mounting hardware locations. Please refer to
schematic for mounting details.
