ACOUSTIC EFFECT
More control without making the room lifeless.
Broadband absorbers reduce disruptive reflections and overly long reverberation times across a wide frequency range. When positioned correctly, they improve clarity, localisation, speech intelligibility, and the perceived precision of the room.
01
Control reflections
Early reflections from side walls, the rear wall, or the ceiling are reduced. This creates a clearer stereo image and a more precise spatial representation.
02
Reduce reverberation
Overly long decay times are controlled. Speech, music, and individual sound events remain more distinguishable from one another.
03
Improve listening and working conditions
Mixing decisions, music playback, and communication become more reliable, as the room overlays the direct sound less strongly.
MODELS & DIMENSIONS
Suitable formats for different surfaces.
The RTA Broadband 100 is available in various formats. For special room situations, we manufacture custom dimensions and tailor the frame, fabric, and mounting solution to the specific project.

CONSTRUCTION & MATERIALS
Thoughtful down to the last detail.
Construction, absorption material, and surface are considered as a complete system. The stable frame ensures shape and durability, while the acoustically open covering allows sound to reach the absorption core as unobstructed as possible.
01 Frame construction
Stable frame with neatly processed edges and optional visible wooden surface.
02 Absorption core
Porous absorption material with a structure tailored to the product depth for broadband effectiveness.
03 Acoustically open covering
Air-permeable fabric in different colours, carefully stretched and neatly processed at the edges.
04 Mounting preparation
Prepared solution for wall or ceiling mounting, tailored to format, weight, and desired distance.
TECHNICAL EFFECT
Broadband control for clearer rooms.
The actual effect of a broadband absorber depends on construction depth, absorption material, mounting position, and distance to the boundary surface. An additional wall or ceiling distance can enhance the effect in the lower frequency range.
— Control of disruptive early reflections
— Reduction of overly long reverberation times
— Improved clarity and spatial representation
Binding performance data will be published after final product testing and documented measurement.

DESIGN & CUSTOMISATION
Acoustic effect in your desired design.
The RTA Broadband 100 can be adapted to different room concepts. Fabric colour, frame design, and visible surfaces are chosen to ensure the absorber integrates harmoniously into studios, living spaces, offices, and demanding listening environments.
01
Fabrics & colours
Acoustically open fabrics are available in different shades. This allows for discreet, contrasting, or decor-matching designs.
02
Wooden frames & surfaces
Optional visible wooden frames give the absorber a high-quality architectural effect. Wood type and surface treatment are selected to match the room concept.
03
Custom design
For niches, sloping ceilings, special wall areas, or design specifications, custom dimensions and project-specific mounting solutions are possible.
TYPICAL POSITIONING
Targeted effect on the right surfaces.
Broadband absorbers are used where disruptive reflections or overly long reverberation times need to be controlled. The optimal position, number, and mounting type depend on room geometry, usage, and acoustic objectives.
For a reliable result, we recommend not determining positions solely based on visual criteria. An acoustic measurement or individual planning can avoid unnecessary elements and incorrect placements.
01
Early reflection points
On side walls, broadband absorbers can reduce early reflections and improve spatial precision at the listening position.
02
Rear Wall
On the rear wall, absorbers can reduce disruptive reflections and excessive overlap of the direct sound.
03
Ceiling area
Above listening, working, or recording positions, ceiling elements can control reflections and improve clarity.
04
Additional wall areas
Additional surfaces can be used for targeted reduction of reverberation when the room and usage require it.

FAQ - FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Questions about the RTA Broadband 100.
Here you will find answers to frequently asked questions about selection, effect, execution, and mounting of the broadband absorber.
Where are broadband absorbers typically mounted?
Typical positions are early reflection points on the side walls, rear walls, additional wall surfaces, and ceiling areas. The optimal position depends on room geometry, usage, and acoustic objectives.
What size is suitable for my room?
The suitable size depends on the available area, desired effect, and the number of elements needed. For larger wall areas, the large format may be sensible. For special areas, custom dimensions are possible.
Can the absorber be mounted with a distance from the wall?
Yes. A defined distance from the wall or ceiling can support effectiveness in a lower frequency range. The appropriate distance is adjusted to the mounting location and acoustic goal.
Are different fabric colours available?
Yes. Various acoustically open fabric colours are available. The actually available shades are coordinated during the inquiry or order.
Is a visible wooden frame possible?
Yes. Depending on the execution, the broadband absorber can be manufactured with a visible wooden frame. Wood type, colour, and surface treatment are selected to match the project.
Does Rock Tribe Audio also handle the installation?
Yes. Upon request, we take care of the professional positioning and installation of the acoustic elements on the wall or ceiling.
Can I only commission an acoustic measurement or planning?
Yes. You can also commission Rock Tribe Audio solely for acoustic measurement, evaluation, or individual acoustic planning. There is no obligation to purchase the recommended acoustic elements from us. Our recommendations can also serve as a basis for your own implementation or the procurement of other products. However, we only offer professional installation for acoustic elements from Rock Tribe Audio, as the fastening, weight, construction, and mounting solution are tailored to our own products.
