The Acoustic Wood Wall Panel

Finding the right balance between sonic performance and visual aesthetic is one of the toughest challenges in any space. This is where the SlatFusor 4S shines, a wood wall panel effortlessly combining acoustic performance with elegant design.

The SlatFusor 4S offers both a timeless design, as well as the exceptional sonic performance that GIK products are known for.

The wooden slats scatter high-frequency sound waves, preserving your room’s brilliance. Behind these slats, a high-performance absorber steps in to control resonances in the low and mid-frequency ranges.

Balance: Achieved

The SlatFusor 4S excels in combining the control of echoes & reverberations with effective absorption of low frequency resonances. It preserves the energy of mid and high frequencies and smooths out any inconsistencies in frequency response and decay times. The SlatFusor 4S is the optimal choice for those seeking a balanced listening environment with the aesthetics of natural wood and peerless sonic performance.

Masterful Craftsmanship in Real Oak Veneer

A fusion of craftsmanship and exceptional sonic design, SlatFusors are made with premium oak slats, looking great right out of the box. While the SlatFusors exude natural beauty with natural oak veneer, the ability to stain the slats opens up endless possibilities. SlatFusors are a statement of sophistication that seamlessly complements any environment, whether you’re at home or in a professional studio.

Seamless Surfaces, Timeless Design

The pioneering design of the SlatFusor 4S wood slat panel ensures that each individual slat panel can be effortlessly arranged on your wall, leaving no unseemly gaps. This meticulous attention to detail not only elevates the acoustic performance of your space but also enhances its visual appeal. A harmonious blend of form and function makes the SlatFusor 4S your perfect choice for wood wall paneling.

GIK Acoustic Panels are tested and certified by the Riverbank Acoustical Laboratories (RAL) Sound Absorption and Sound Absorption Coefficients by the Reverberation Room Method ASTM C 423-02/NVLAP 08/P03 GIK Acoustics panels submitted to two standard acoustic test methods: ASTM “A” and “J” testing. For “A” testing the acoustic panels are placed all together flat against a surface and tested. “A” testing is the standardized testing method for the manufacturing industry. “J” testing simulates the recommended mounting of the product by the manufacturer. GIK tested two set-ups: 1) panels straddled in corners 2) panels spaced off the wall and mounted on stands. To our knowledge GIK Acoustics is the only company to provide data on both testing methods.

The GIK Difference

There’s a difference between a GIK Acoustics product and all others on the market.

The U.S. Patent & Trademark Office issued utility patent US 9,091,060 for GIK’s unique, proprietary design of its acoustic absorbers. The patent covers the design and construction of GIK Acoustics’ 242 Acoustic Panels, 244 Bass Traps with FlexRange Technology, and Monster Bass Traps with FlexRange Technology.

In addition to our patent, we separate ourselves from other acoustic treatment manufacturers in 6 primary areas

quality

GIK Acoustics products are beyond simple do-it-yourself panels that are found on the market today. We start with only the highest-quality materials that will not sag or leak over time, then we build every panel by hand employing a unique two-frame system.

Unlike other companies who use inexpensive materials, GIK Acoustics panels are crafted with quality insulation material, fabrics and hardwood plywoods. We start with absorptive insulation material that is intended for room acoustics – not cheap mineral wool whose main purpose is to insulate a ship’s engine room.

We then use carefully selected hardwood plywoods – not cheap imports – to construct our frames. The difference and chief advantage is dimensional stability. Crossbanded layers and balanced construction mean that hardwood plywood won’t shrink, swell or warp as much as lumber. To finish our panels we offer an array of fine fabrics – from our standard 9 options to the full line of Guilford of Maine panel fabrics.

GIK Acoustics products are not only Greensafe, but they carry a Class A fire rating which means we continue to provide our clients with the safest most effective products available. The Class A fire rating means that GIK Acoustics treatments have received the highest rating possible under the ASTM E84, a test used by code officials and regulatory agencies in the acceptance of interior finish materials.

Our team of professional builders handcraft each acoustic panel, bass trap and diffusor to exacting standards ensuring the most attractive, effective and dependable products. The difference is our customers are secure in knowing they receive the very best made-to-order acoustic treatments available.

value

Dollar for dollar, GIK Acoustics’ products absorb more sabins (sound) than any other product on the market. We provide our customers the most cost effective solution to make every space sound it’s best.

GIK Acoustics Panels are tested and certified by the Riverbank Acoustical Laboratories (RAL) to provide the most accurate information on the results you can expect when you purchase our products.

Our exceptional cost-to-benefit ratio means our customers do not over-buy or over-treat a room to get results.

Innovation

Over the past 10 years, GIK Acoustics has pioneered a number of acoustic treatments that you can’t find anywhere else. From the Tri-Trap Corner Bass Trap© to our Soffit Bass Trap© to the built in Scatter Plate, GIK continues to innovate.

After a year of research & development, in 2013 we introduced FlexRange Technology – our unique, proprietary system for providing the best in bass trapping and low end absorption.

In 2015 we launched the Alpha Series, a line of acoustic panels and bass traps with a wood face which has a mathematical sequence of slots for one-dimensional scattering / diffusion. The Alpha Series literally changes the face of acoustic panels and bass traps by beautifully combining absorption with diffusion and enhancing any room both aesthetically and acoustically with superior quality, high-performing, and stylish room treatments.

GIK Acoustics is also proud to have launched creative, unique products such as: the multifunctional PIB (Portable Isolation Booth), the decorative and effective Impression Series, and the striking, precise Gotham N23 5″ Quadratic Skyline Diffusor.

We are constantly innovating, so look for more solutions and creative treatments from GIK Acoustics.
