Equipson has announced the introduction of a new Acoustic Simulator online tool for its own product range that’s designed to help AV installers more accurately calculate the number of loudspeakers and amplifiers needed to achieve optimum results.
The web-based tool makes its calculations by referencing a database of Equipson loudspeakers and amplifiers. Filters are provided so that installers can choose the product with the right characteristics for their project.
Once a choice has been made, installers need enter the dimensions of the space and let the software work out how many loudspeakers are needed. It will also identify which amplifiers should be chosen to meet the project’s power requirements and it will tell installers where best to position the loudspeakers within the space to achieve optimum acoustic results.
“Installers working with Equipson PA products can save themselves a great deal of time and effort by allowing our Acoustic Simulator tool to calculate exactly what they need in a simple and automated way,” says Equipson AV Systems product manager Javier Reolid Arocas. “The software is incredibly easy to use and requires very little effort on the part of the installer. It can also be tailored to suit highly specific requirements – for example an installer can state whether a PA system will be used for speech, music or both, the type of sound dispersion required and the tolerance level for background noise.”
Once the correct number and type of products have been identified, installers can also link the Acoustic Simulator results to their account to create a shopping list. There is also an option to download the simulator’s results as a pdf file. Go here to access the new Equipson Acoustic Simulator.
