Custom acoustic panels

[jont]

Thinking of getting some acoustic panels made when I finish the media room ... but I’d like to have them made/covered with some custom canvas/fabric prints of some of my best rock shots ... anyone do custom panels that could be recommended?

heres some of my work: 131 Images - Jon Theobald

guessing I’d need to work with the supplier to give room dimensions and layout ?

I believe @mb3195 had this done

He had fabric custom printed and made his own frames made Shed of Darkness 9.4.6

Contrado will print photos onto a range of different fabrics.

I found these high-functioning acoustic sound panels that combine beautiful form and high function. They have the best acoustic wall and ceiling panels.

I recently finished a couple of them, after finding the fabric designs which were printed by a local shop a while back. I knocked up the frame and put the material in it myself, and was pretty pleased with the results.

Hi Dan ... went with GIK Acoustic in the end - was approx £125 per panel but they look great and clap test in the room sounds less bright/echo-ey already

I'll take a look

"Polyester Acoustic Panels" I recommend you browse this page promoting excellent acoustic panels for walls, ceilings and 3D. They have them in PET felt, in Polyester. Geometric and in variety of colors. I remodeled my audio room with them and it was perfect.

That link is basic thin polyester panels, it's ok for offices, classrooms, cafe's. But if your serious about sound quality in a movie or music room then you will need much thicker depth (ideally 4inchs or more) acoustic panels. With rock wool or mineral wool (though certain types of acoustic foam can be decent) behind the acoustically transparent fabric.

My own room I'm currently setting up a mixture of absorbers and diffusers. Bought from GIK acoustics, a British acoustic company with decades of experience, and a Eastern European seller. Bought 11 acoustic panels so far, not cheap but I know the quality will be there.
