Sound Absorption
Cars, trains, and airplanes all use carpeting, as do concert halls and cinemas. That’s because carpeting is excellent at absorbing sound. It’s great when you’re flying at 40,00 feet in a long metal tube with a few hundred other passengers, but also ideal when you’re putting together a media room.Here’s how carpets help control sound:
- Carpet Absorbs Sound: When soundwaves hit carpeting, they are absorbed. This is why carpet absorbs and controls sound better than hard flooring.
- Carpet Reduces Distortion: The sounds of your movie can start reflecting off hard surfaces, creating irritating distortion. Carpeting prevents that from happening.
- Reducing Outside Noise: If there’s sound rising from below your media room, carpeting helps muffle it. It also absorbs sound reverberation.
For the best results, use a high-density carpet.
