Panel Sound Absorbers

The Kinetics Model KNP panel absorbers are perforated panels designed to control background and reverberant noise. They absorb sound over a wide frequency range and can be attached to walls, ceilings or other surfaces while providing an aesthetically pleasing appearance. KNP can act as barriers when a solid sheet metal back is added, and also can be added to existing barriers to reduce reverberation time and lower reflected sound levels. Kinetics Noise Control
