New SMS-SURF4 Compact Surface Sound Masking Speaker |
|
|
The new SURF4 loudspeaker is designed to generate the optimum masking sound for in-ceiling configuration with a small footprint of 4 inches (100mm), significantly reducing the size of our surface sound masking speaker AND keeping all of its available power. Furthermore, the SURF4 comes with two easy-to-use springs for installation in the ceiling tile or gypsum. |

Many statements have been made on the sound uniformity of direct field (or surface) sound masking systems versus plenum ones. Our team will present an important technical paper which will be the first to measure the sound field spatial uniformity for both indirect and direct sound masking systems. From the 26 to the 29th of August, come and meet with us at boot 613 at the Marriott Magnificent Mile Downtown Chicago, Illinois |

Soft dB’s Smart SMS-NET already enjoys exceptional confidentiality and comfort with the Adaptive Control exclusive feature. However, specific situations require lowering or raising the volume level of the masking sound in individual offices or board rooms. It is for these situations that Soft dB offers two types of volume knobs. The SMS-SK-VC allows users to adjust the volume for a given speaker, while the SMS-ZN-VC allows users to adjust the volume of a given zone (a group of speakers). |

Rockfon, a subsidiary of Denmark-based ROCKWOOL International, produces acoustic solutions for ceilings and walls. In their blog article “SEEING YOUR WAY THROUGH THE NOISE”, we discover how their products perform to control the noise passing through a ceiling. The very accurate sound maps presented in the article were created using the I-Track system, Soft dB’s very own sound intensity mapping system. As the author says : “This color-mapping method helps to bridge the gap between the technical, quantitative side of acoustics and the visual side of design in an impactful and memorable way.” |
