Quick guide – which panel fits where?

  • FREJA living room wall acoustic panels: wood veneer slat design, absorption coefficient NRC 0.80, easy to install, minimalist look. Also available as printed acoustic panels with custom photos.
  • Children’s room acoustic panels: Bilnora felt panels, safe and impact resistant.
  • Behind the TV wall in the living room: wideband fabric-covered panels that absorb sound, or FREJA wood slat panels. Acoustic panels placed behind the TV can play an important role in creating a harmonious sound environment, while also offering aesthetic benefits.
  • Home cinema extension: diffuser front panels placed at reflection points, combined with bass absorbers in the corners.

Why choose panels over carpets and curtains?

  • Immediate echo reduction.
  • Same NRC value with half the surface area.
  • UV-resistant veneer finish that doesn’t fade.
  • Slim, modern design.
  • Requires less wall space.

If you prefer textiles, go for a sound-absorbing carpet or acoustic curtain, far more effective than standard fabrics.

Separating goals: Hi-Fi or home cinema

  • For reducing echo or enhancing TV sound: if you only want to reduce echo in the living room or slightly improve the TV sound, thinner panels will be enough. It’s best to place them evenly on all sides so that the sound doesn’t bounce around, effectively eliminating the echo.
  • For Hi-Fi or cinema sound quality:
    • Thicker panels are needed to absorb low frequencies, as thin panels are not suitable for that purpose.
    • Diffuser front panels should, if possible, be placed near the speakers and at the reflection points. You can check this with a mirror.
    • Wideband panels are worth using when a clean, minimalist look is preferred, although their effect is weaker than that of diffuser front panels.
    • Bass traps should always be in the corners, even stacked on top of each other. Fortunately, they don’t need to be drilled in as they stand on their own. They can even serve as plant stands, which is something many wives really appreciate.
    • You can also use photo-printed panels. While these acoustic panels are not as effective as diffuser panels, they look beautiful in a living room. Simply order them and send us your custom image by email – we will print it onto the fabric in full photo quality.
