Room treatment wall hangings .... I need ideas
« on: 25 Nov 2010, 08:45 pm »
I am about to put up room treatment panels in my listening room. The panels measure 2'x4' and 2'x2' with one being 3'x5'.

I have a company who can take literally ANY high resolution picture and transfer it on to the canvas which covers the acoustic panels. I thought it would be really easy to just Google high resolution pictures, and find cool and exotic prints .... This has not turned out as easy as I thought.

They prints need to be at least 3000x3000 pixles, or more. Anyone have any suggestions ?

You really do not want to use canvas for the fronts of panels. What we use is a process called dye sublimation, which dyes the fabric keeping it open to let sound in. Canvas will reflect sound.

Burlap would be a better way to go.  There are several sources online for burlap of several colors.
