Acoustic Treatment & Engineering for High-Performance AV Systems in Singapore & Malaysia

Acoustic performance is not determined by loudspeakers alone.  Room geometry, surface reflectivity, modal behaviour, and time-domain response fundamentally shape what you hear.

AV Intelligence delivers engineered acoustic treatment strategies for private residences, executive offices, hospitality venues, and specialist listening environments across Singapore and Malaysia — designed for measurable, repeatable performance outcomes.

Our approach is system-led, not decorative. Acoustic solutions are specified, integrated, and commissioned as part of a coherent audio-visual environment.

Why Acoustic Treatment Matters in Home Cinema and Critical Listening Spaces

Even reference-grade loudspeakers will underperform in an untreated room.  Common acoustic issues include:

• Early reflections that blur imaging and reduce clarity
• Low-frequency room modes that exaggerate or cancel bass
• Excess reverberation affecting dialogue intelligibility
• Uneven frequency response across seating positions

These issues cannot be resolved purely through equipment upgrades. Acoustic treatment addresses the physical behaviour of sound within the space — forming the foundation of accurate reproduction.

Engineering-Led Acoustic Design Process

Acoustic Assessment & Room Analysis

Every project begins with evaluation of:

• Room dimensions and proportions
• Speaker layout and listening positions
• Surface materials and reflectivity
• Intended usage (cinema, stereo listening, mixed-use, hospitality, etc.)

Where required, we incorporate measurement data and predictive modelling to inform treatment strategy.

Modal & Reflection Control Strategy

Low-frequency management and reflection control are addressed through:

• Bass trapping for modal smoothing
• First reflection treatment to improve imaging
• Controlled diffusion for spatial balance
• Reverberation time management

Treatment placement is engineered — not aesthetic guesswork.

Integration with System Design

Acoustic treatment is coordinated with:

• Loudspeaker specification
• Subwoofer positioning
• Amplification strategy
• Future digital calibration (e.g. Dirac Live)

This ensures the room and system function as a unified environment rather than independent components.

Architectural Acoustic Solutions

Performance should not compromise aesthetics. We work with specialist manufacturers and custom fabrication partners to deliver:

• Fabric-wrapped absorption panels
• Integrated diffusers
• Concealed bass control solutions
• Custom-finished acoustic elements
• Architecturally coordinated installations

• Discreet & Decorative Acoustic Integration

  

All solutions are selected based on measurable acoustic properties, fire compliance standards, durability, and long-term serviceability.

Measured Performance, Not Decorative Panels

Not all acoustic panels are engineered equally.  AV Intelligence specifies acoustic platforms based on:

• Verified absorption coefficients
• Diffusion characteristics
• Material consistency
• Structural integrity
• Compliance with project safety standards

Our solutions are deployed as part of engineered systems — not supplied as standalone decorative products.

Acoustic Treatment for Different Environments

Home Cinema Acoustic Treatment

Dedicated cinema rooms require controlled reverberation, accurate dialogue intelligibility, and consistent low-frequency performance across seating rows.

Living Room & Open-Plan AV Optimisation

In architectural spaces where full treatment is not feasible, we implement discreet strategies to improve clarity and bass control without disrupting interior design intent.

Commercial & Hospitality Acoustic Solutions

For restaurants, clubs, boardrooms, and institutional environments, acoustic management ensures speech intelligibility, coverage consistency, and operational comfort under continuous use.

Relationship Between Acoustic Treatment and Digital Calibration

Digital room correction platforms — such as Dirac Live — refine system performance after physical acoustic variables are addressed.  Calibration cannot compensate for fundamental room design limitations.

AV Intelligence deploys digital optimisation only after speaker placement, gain structure, and acoustic control have been engineered correctly — ensuring predictable and stable results.

Projects Across Singapore & Malaysia

We deliver engineered acoustic solutions for:

• Private residences in Singapore
• Landed properties and penthouses in Kuala Lumpur and Petaling Jaya
• Commercial and hospitality venues across the region
• Institutional and executive environments

All projects are designed, integrated, and commissioned by our in-house engineering team.
