Project 2889 Lama HiFi: Achieving Sonic Perfection with Advanced Acoustic Design


Project 2889 Lama HiFi: Achieving Sonic Perfection with Advanced Acoustic Design

Welcome to our latest project, Project 2889 Lama HiFi, where we took on the challenge of transforming a standard listening space into an acoustically optimized HiFi room. This project showcases how meticulous acoustic design, precision installation, and high-performance materials can elevate the listening experience to new heights. From tailored absorber and diffuser configurations to strategic bass management using Artnovion bass traps, every element was meticulously chosen to bring out the best in sound reproduction. Join us as we dive into the details of this unique project and explore the techniques that turned this room into an acoustic masterpiece.

Precise Installation: Bringing the Design to Life

Corner Bass Trap Installation

The installation process started by placing four Artnovion Siena Bass Traps in the rear corners of the room. These bass traps are specifically designed to target low-frequency build-ups, minimizing room modes and ensuring a tighter and more balanced low-end response. The strategic positioning and height of these traps allow for more effective absorption, significantly reducing unwanted bass resonances, and creating a clearer soundstage.

Ceiling Installation

For the ceiling, we utilized a combination of Artnovion Andrea Absorbers and Lagos Diffusers, attached using the FixArt Tube System. The Andrea Absorbers control reflections and unwanted reverberation, while the Lagos Diffusers help scatter sound waves evenly, enhancing the room’s overall sense of space. This hybrid approach addresses mid to high-frequency reflections, allowing for a balanced acoustic treatment that maintains a natural sound and optimizes the room’s tonal clarity.

Front Wall Installation

The front wall was treated with a complete array of Artnovion Sahara Panels in Gloss White, chosen for their high-performance absorption and aesthetic finish. These panels provide superior control over early reflections, resulting in improved imaging and sound clarity at the listening position. The uniform placement of Sahara Panels across the front wall not only elevates the visual appeal of the room but also enhances the accuracy and definition of the audio experience, making it the perfect focal point for a HiFi listening environment.


Final Project Completion: Aesthetics and Performance

The finished project showcases a comprehensive acoustic treatment setup. The ceiling integrates Andrea absorbers and Lagos diffusers, arranged to enhance clarity and reduce reflections. The front wall is elegantly treated with Sahara panels in a gloss white finish, creating a visually striking focal point. Corner bass traps provide additional low-frequency control, ensuring balanced acoustics throughout the space. The combination of treatments delivers a refined look while significantly improving the room’s acoustic performance.


Acoustic Results: Before and After Treatment Analysis


RT60 Analysis:
