RECOMMENDED FOR: Rooms that need a well controlled acoustic subspace in which otherwise would be acoustically hostile rooms. Used in an array form, (Circular or Rectangular around a paticular point) Studio Columns provide a broadbrand of sound absorbtion that can be expanded and/or moved at any time.

Studio Columns are / provide...

Affordability: Studio Columns offers 50% to 75% of savings (and in some cases even more!) vs. other arrays.

No Resonant Frequency: Competing devices are most effective at their one tuned (resonant) frequency and give uneven soundfilds due to the devices' different diameters. Studio Columns, being passive acoustic devices, and constucted of foam specificaly fabricated for acoustics, do not have a resonant frequency.

Broadband Absorption: Studio Columns offers superb broad bandwith control that provide extreme linearity. Acoustical testing shows that Studio Columns across the testing bandwidth differs only +/- 1.9 Sabins. (This is statistically nearly flat and very hard to accomplish.)

Portability: Studio Columns are very light. Because of this, they can be moved, stored, and configured whenever neccesary.

Modularity: Studio Columns are sold in singles, so you can make as large or as small of an array as neccesary. And when the time comes, more Studio Columns can be purchased to create larger and/or new arrays.

Symmetrical Absorption & Refraction: Other arrays use devices of different diameters, which absorb frequenceys differently, and have different refraction characteristics. These competing arrays create hot spots and nulls in the soundfield (noting that some are only being absorbtive on 1/2 their circumference). With the common knowledge that room sound is generated by soundwaves and there interaction with room boundries, it becomes clear that you need a full 360 Degrees of sound proofing foam that Studio Columns provides for the uniform control of axial, tangential & oblique soundwaves for both outside and inside the array.

Foolproof Design: Other devices designed for arrays have been said to (subjectively & measurably) "not work" in some enviroments. But for the Studio Columns, based on the physics of sound control, their 360 degree design & its non-resonat foam, there is just no way they can't work in any room!

Bass Absorbtion: Studio Columns provide a great amount of low frequency absorbtion at all times. Universally the least understood, difficult to accomplish and most overlooked aspect of acoustic countrol is low frequency control. Mostly all rooms need a lot more bass absorbtion then most people realize. Studio Columns can provide this low frequency absorbtion, no matter where in the room they are placed.

Added Bonus: Also, as an added bonus, all Studio columns come with Female Bradband Absorbers - free of charge! After they are done protecting the Studio Columns During shippment, they can be used for additional bass trapping, as well as broadband absorbtion. Please make NO mistake that they are just "packaging material" used in shipping Studio Columns. They provide about the same amount of sound absorbtion as the Studio Columns, so you can be sure they can be used to help tame your sound problems.
