MORE CONCENTRATION
WITH CORRECT ACOUSTICS
To achieve optimum room acoustics, it is not enough to turn the room down like a radio – you have to take account of different factors. So in addition to the basic level there are on the one hand elements which contribute to intelligibility, and on the other components which influence the reverberation time. The aim is to create a balanced relationship which is attuned to the structural conditions and the activities in the room.
