Course Description
In the beginning, there was perfect sound…then man invented rooms. Sound waves generated in a room will radiate out to the room’s boundaries and are transmitted, reflected, or absorbed. Hence, one of the central topics in acoustics is how to manipulate these reflections that affect the way that sound propagates out of or within a room. This course will address the primary concerns related to small-room acoustics and will provide real-world solutions to those acoustical concerns in order to achieve the best possible acoustic results.

During this class you will learn:

• Basic Principles of Sound
  
• Sound Transmission and Isolation
  
• Sound Quality
  • Reflections, Flutter Echo, Bass Build-up
    
  • Absorption
    
  • Diffusion
    
  • Bass Trapping
• Test Methods and Tools
  
• Hands-on Lab
  • Treated and Untreated Spaces
    
  • How to Treat a Room

This course will begin at the CEDIA Training Facility in the morning for classroom learning and will end at Auralex Acoustics Headquarters for hands-on training, a tour of the facility, and a demonstration of treated and untreated rooms. Register now!

A complimentary shuttle will be provided to Auralex Headquarters from the CEDIA Training Facility.
