Harmonix G
Overview
The Harmonix G represents the evolution in architectural acoustics toward quantifiable, organic shapes. The surface of the Harmonix G is designed to provide a more uniform sound field through mid and high frequency diffusion while the hard, GRG construction of the unit limits the amount of sound energy removed by absorption.
RPG Harmonix G is a shape optimised diffusor. The smooth shapes are a direct contrast to the usual sharp geometric lines of our range, and offer designers a different direction to take room acoustics and diffusion.
Formed from fire rated Kydex or Class 0 plaster, the Harmonix G can be wall or ceiling mounted, and finished in any colour, this allows a huge range of choice when considering using the panels.
Harmonix G
Application of T-bar mounted absorptive and reflective ceiling systems have been a traditional approach to acoustical control. However, sound can also be controlled using diffusion. RPG pioneered the sound diffusion market over 25 years ago, with a range of number theoretic diffusing products. The tradition continues with the introduction of a new entry into the T-bar mounted acoustical ceiling market, the Waveform Harmonix-G. RPG utilized its patented Shape Optimizer and aperiodic modulation technology to provide an interesting and modern contoured surface that has the appearance of a bas relief sculpture. The center of each panel is asymmetric, however, the sides are identical. Therefore, this unique acoustically optimized asymmetric shape, offers the opportunity to create an unlimited range of surfaces, determined only by the orientation of adjacent panels. The Harmonix-G is fabricated from non-combustible glass reinforced gypsum
for safety and economy and designed to provide optimal coverage with minimal low frequency diaphragmatic absorption. This provides uniform coverage, due to optimal diffusion, lack of periodicity effects, due to aperiodic modulation and good low frequency support. Add beauty and improved acoustical performance to your room with Harmonix-G.
Problem
An “acoustic ceiling” has come to mean absorptive mineral or fiberglass tiles. Exclusive use of only mid-high frequency absorption in the ceiling cannot optimize the acoustics of spaces where music is to be enjoyed or speech is to be understood. The industry needed a complementary sound diffusing tile for these applications.
Solution
The Waveform Harmonix-G™ is the first cost-effective, non-combustible GRG, molded 2D sound diffusor that offers uniform mid-high sound diffusion and minimal low frequency diaphragmatic absorption to provide optimal coverage with good bass support.
