Primacoustic Broadway Honeycomb Acoustic Panels
Primacoustic has expanded its Broadway range with the Honeycomb acoustic absorbers that are designed to give users more aesthetic options in their recording spaces . Rather than being limited to the typical square and rectangular panels found in most studios , the hexagonal shape and beveled edges allow the panels to be installed in unique patterns and clusters .
Primary reflections and flutter echo can be controlled with an acoustic treatment layout that is personalized to the space . The 16-in . Honeycombs are 1.5 in . thick and are constructed from 6-lb . high density glass wool for broadband absorption . As with all Primacoustic panels , the Honeycombs have been tested to achieve Class-A fire ratings . The Honeycomb absorbers are available in black , grey , or beige Broadway acoustic fabric , or in Primacoustic ’ s proprietary Paintables white finish .
