The problem
Zheng Yu plays drums and trumpet in a 2.8 x 3.5 m HDB bedroom with a standard 2.6 m ceiling. The sound bounced straight back off the bare walls, which made practice loud and tiring. He also has cats, so the panels had to be fully sealed at the back, and the door swings close to one wall.
What we installed
We sent a layout from our Flexi panel range and fitted 8 pitch-black fabric acoustic panels: four in a band behind the bed, three facing the drum kit and one on the side wall. Each panel is fully wrapped and sealed, so no fibres can come out. We mounted them with 3M wall anchors and construction glue, so there was no drilling, and kept the area clear where the door swings open. Installation took about an hour.
The result
Practice sounds less harsh and the room is easier on the ears. The panels went up in an evening with no drilling or mess.
