• Should Acoustic Panels Be Vertical or Horizontal? Jul 21, 2025
    When designing an acoustically treated space—whether it’s a home studio, office, theater, or residential interior—acoustic panels play a vital role in controlling sound reflections, echo, and reverberation. One common question we receive is:“Should acoustic panels be installed vertically or horizontally?” As a leading Chinese manufacturer and exporter of wooden slat acoustic wall panels, Guangdong Leeyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. is here to guide you through this important design decision with both technical insight and aesthetic consideration. 🔍 The Short Answer Both vertical and horizontal installations are effective, but the best orientation depends on: Room size and shape Primary sound reflection points Aesthetic goals Type of space (e.g., home studio vs. living room) Let’s break it down. 📐 Acoustic Considerations: Vertical vs. Horizontal ✅ Vertical Installation Best for: Narrow walls, high ceilings, speech clarity Helps absorb reflections at ear level (important in offices, meeting rooms, and studios) Breaks up vertical sound waves traveling from floor to ceiling Enhances room height perception and symmetry Ideal placement behind speakers or workstations Vertical panels are particularly useful in conference rooms, classrooms, and podcast setups where speech intelligibility matters. ✅ Horizontal Installation Best for: Large open spaces, low ceilings, home cinemas Helps reduce flutter echoes between long walls Adds a balanced, linear visual effect to wide rooms Ideal for absorbing lateral reflections in home theaters, recording studios, and lounge areas Horizontal orientation can also emphasize the room’s width, contributing to a more relaxed or modern aesthetic. 🛠️ Functional Tip: Mix Both Orientations For optimal acoustic performance, a combination of vertical and horizontal panels is often recommended—especially in larger or irregularly shaped rooms. Vertically placed panels can target speech and direct reflections Horizontally placed panels help break up long wall surfaces and tackle mid- to high-frequency reverberation 🪵 Aesthetic Flexibility with Leeyin Panels At Liyin Acoustics, our wooden slat acoustic panels are not just acoustically effective—they’re visually stunning. With multiple wood veneers, PET backing colors, and customizable lengths, they can be mounted vertically or horizontally with ease. Why Our Panels Stand Out: 🌱 Made from FSC-certified wood veneer 🛡️ Manufactured using E0-grade MDF—safe, low formaldehyde 🔥 Fire-resistant and environmentally friendly 🛠️ Easy to cut, install, and maintain 🎨 Compatible with both vertical and horizontal designs 🏭 About Guangdong Leeyin Acoustics As a pioneer in acoustic wall solutions, Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. has a:   💼 20,000 m² modern manufacturing facility 🌍 Strong export presence in Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia 🔧 Strict adherence to international quality standards (ISO, FSC, SGS) 💡 Specialized focus on wooden slat acoustic panels for both commercial and residential applications
  • Should Acoustic Panels Be on Walls or Ceilings? Jul 14, 2025
    When it comes to improving sound quality in a room—whether it’s an office, studio, home theater, or commercial space—acoustic panels are an essential solution. But one of the most common questions we hear is:“Should acoustic panels go on the walls or the ceiling?” The short answer? Both can be effective depending on your acoustic goals. In this blog post, we’ll explore the differences, benefits, and ideal placements of acoustic panels—especially our signature wood slat acoustic panels from Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. ✅ Wall-Mounted Acoustic Panels 📌 Why Install Acoustic Panels on Walls? Primary reflection points: Walls are often the first surfaces where sound waves bounce, creating echoes and muddying audio clarity. Improved speech intelligibility: Reducing side wall reflections makes spoken words more crisp and clear—essential in offices and meeting rooms. Ideal for small to medium-sized rooms: Most sound reflections occur horizontally in typical spaces. ✔ Best Placement on Walls: At ear level in seating positions Behind or beside speakers On opposite walls for balanced absorption ✅ Ceiling-Mounted Acoustic Panels 📌 Why Install Acoustic Panels on Ceilings? Tackling vertical reflections: Ceilings reflect sound waves just like walls, especially in large rooms with high ceilings. Open spaces benefit most: Conference rooms, restaurants, and atriums often require overhead absorption to reduce ambient noise. Better low-frequency control: Hanging baffles or ceiling clouds can improve low-end absorption and reduce flutter echo. ✔ Best Ceiling Applications: Above central seating areas Suspended panels (clouds) for visual effect + sound control In open-plan offices or multi-functional public spaces 🪵 Why Choose Liyin’s Wood Slat Acoustic Panels? At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd.( Leeyin ) , we design and manufacture premium wood slat acoustic panels with PET backing—ideal for both wall and ceiling installations. 💼 Our Core Advantages: 🔧 Versatile Application – Easily mounted on walls or ceilings with screws, glue, or mounting rails 🌿 Eco-Friendly Materials – Made with PET felt, E0 MDF, and FSC-certified wood veneer 🔥 Fire-Rated & Formaldehyde-Free – Meets international safety standards 🏢 20,000 m² Production Facility – Backed by modern equipment and efficient logistics 🌍 Global B2B Supplier – Exported to Europe, North America, Southeast Asia, and more 🛠️ OEM/ODM Services – Custom sizes, colors, and finishes for your project needs Whether you're treating a recording studio wall or creating a stylish sound-absorbing ceiling feature in a hotel lobby, our acoustic panels are engineered for aesthetics and performance. 🎯 Final Takeaway: Walls, Ceilings… or Both? The best acoustic treatment strategy considers both surfaces. Start with walls for first reflections, then consider ceilings for additional control—especially in large or open rooms.   Liyin Acoustics panels are engineered to perform beautifully on either surface, allowing you to create an environment that both sounds and looks exceptional.  
  • How Far Off the Wall Should Acoustic Panels Be? Jul 10, 2025
    When it comes to optimizing sound quality in a space—whether a studio, office, or home—the installation of acoustic panels is a smart investment. But one often overlooked factor is panel spacing from the wall. So, how far off the wall should acoustic panels be to maximize performance? At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. ( Leeyin ) , we specialize in producing high-performance wood slat acoustic panels with PET felt backing. As a leading exporter in China with a 20,000㎡ modern facility, we combine craftsmanship and science to help clients around the world enhance their acoustic environments. 🎧 Why Panel Spacing Matters Most people assume acoustic panels should be mounted flat against the wall. While that’s common, leaving a small air gap behind the panel can significantly improve low-frequency absorption. This method is often used in professional sound treatment applications. 📏 Ideal Spacing: The Magic Number In general, 2 to 4 inches (5–10 cm) of space behind the panel is ideal. This added distance: Enhances bass absorption Improves overall sound dampening Increases absorption without additional material 💡 Pro Tip: A 2-inch panel with a 2-inch air gap performs nearly as well as a 4-inch panel flat-mounted. 🛠️ How to Mount Panels with a Gap Here are three popular methods to mount wood slat acoustic panels with air space: Wooden Furring Strips: Use wood strips to create a frame behind the panel. Wall Spacers: Install metal or plastic standoffs to keep the panel off the wall. French Cleat System: Great for adjustable mounting with gap control. Our Liyin panels are engineered to be easy to install with all three methods—gluing, screwing, or using brackets. 🪵 Why Choose Liyin Acoustic Panels? Our E0-grade MDF + PET felt wood slat acoustic panels combine beauty and functionality. ✅ Scientifically engineered for acoustic performance✅ Manufactured using eco-friendly, recyclable PET felt✅ Meets E0 formaldehyde standards✅ Certified with FSC-compliant materials✅ Ideal for walls and ceilings✅ Customizable sizes and finishes✅ Exported globally to Europe, North America, and Southeast Asia 🧠 Final Thought: Wall Gap = Smart Sound   Spacing acoustic panels 2–4 inches from the wall enhances their sound-absorbing capabilities, especially for lower frequencies. If you want great acoustics without compromising on style, our wooden slat acoustic panels offer the perfect solution.
  • How to 100% Soundproof a Room: A Complete Guide Jul 10, 2025
    Soundproofing a room completely—blocking all unwanted noise from entering or escaping—is a significant challenge. While achieving absolute 100% soundproofing requires extensive construction-level adjustments, you can get impressively close with the right materials, techniques, and product choices. At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. ( Leeyin ) , we specialize in wood slat acoustic panels and deliver effective sound solutions to clients worldwide. In this guide, we’ll walk you through how to soundproof a room as completely as possible, whether for a studio, office, or private space. 🔍 Understanding True Soundproofing Soundproofing is different from sound absorption. Soundproofing blocks sound, while acoustic treatment improves sound quality inside the room. To soundproof a room, you must address all sound pathways: Airborne sound (voices, music) Impact sound (footsteps, vibrations) Structural transmission (through walls, floors, ceilings) ✅ 1. Seal All Air Gaps Even the smallest gaps let sound leak in or out. Start by sealing: Door frames: Use door sweeps and rubber seals Window edges: Apply acoustic caulk or double-glazed windows Outlets and vents: Cover with soundproofing gaskets or acoustic putty pads 🔧 Use acoustic caulk to seal all perimeter gaps for added noise isolation. ✅ 2. Upgrade Your Walls Typical drywall transmits sound easily. To soundproof walls: Add mass: Use mass loaded vinyl (MLV) or multiple layers of drywall with Green Glue (a damping compound) Use decoupling techniques: Install resilient channels or staggered studs Install high-density acoustic panels, like our PET-backed wood slat acoustic panels for added absorption and diffusion 👉 Liyin Acoustics' slat wall panels not only enhance aesthetics but contribute to a multi-layered acoustic barrier. ✅ 3. Reinforce Doors & Windows Standard doors and windows are weak spots. Replace hollow-core doors with solid-core doors Install double or triple-glazed windows Use soundproof curtains or acoustic window inserts ✅ 4. Soundproof the Ceiling To prevent noise from above: Add acoustic insulation between ceiling joists Use acoustic ceiling panels or suspended ceiling systems Install wooden acoustic ceiling panels from Liyin Acoustics for both style and performance ✅ 5. Treat the Floors To block footstep noise and vibration: Lay carpet with dense underlay Use soundproofing mats or cork/rubber flooring Seal baseboards with acoustic sealant ✅ 6. Add Absorption Materials To control echo and improve internal acoustics: Install Liyin’s wood slat acoustic panels Use fabric acoustic panels, bass traps, or corner diffusers Add acoustic foam in key reflection points 🌿 Why Choose Liyin Acoustics?

  • How to Hide Wires Behind Acoustic Panels? Jun 04, 2025
    How to Hide Wires Behind Acoustic Panels: A Clean and Professional Finish In today’s design-forward environments—whether residential, commercial, or hospitality spaces—clean aesthetics matter. While acoustic wall panels are primarily used for sound absorption and interior elegance, they can also serve a dual function: concealing electrical wires and cables for a neat, polished look. At Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd., (Leeyin)  we specialize in manufacturing high-quality wood slat acoustic panels with PET felt backing. As a leading exporter in China, we not only understand acoustic performance—but also how design practicality, like cable management, plays a key role in modern interiors. Why Hide Wires Behind Acoustic Panels? Visible wires from TVs, speakers, LED lighting, or office equipment can ruin an otherwise flawless wall design. Hiding wires behind acoustic panels: Maintains a clean, minimalist aesthetic Prevents tangling and potential hazards Enhances the professional look of commercial and B2B environments Step-by-Step Guide: How to Hide Wires Behind Acoustic Panels 1. Plan the Layout in Advance Before installing your panels, identify all the devices that require wiring—TVs, wall-mounted lights, sound systems, etc. Create a cable route map along the wall surface. 2. Use Cable Conduits or Channels Mount plastic or metal wire conduits along the cable path on the wall. This protects the cables and ensures they don’t come into direct contact with the back of the panels. 3. Choose Panels with PET Felt Backing Liyin’s wood slat acoustic panels feature a PET felt backing that’s flexible and easy to work with, allowing small gaps between the panel and wall for cable routing without visible bulging or misalignment. 4. Cut Channels in the Felt or Slat (If Needed) For thicker cables or specific outlets, you may carefully cut small channels in the PET backing or slats to accommodate wire passage. Always use proper tools and maintain panel integrity. 5. Secure the Wires Behind the Panel Once the wiring is in place: Fix the cables with zip ties or adhesive clips behind the mounting battens or wall structure. Mount the acoustic panels over the cables, making sure they sit flush with the wall. 6. Access Points and Maintenance If future access is needed, you can leave removable panel sections or design hidden openings behind larger electronics or furniture. Why Choose Liyin Acoustics Panels? Guangdong Liyin Acoustics Technology Co., Ltd. is a trusted name in acoustic design and manufacturing. Our panels are engineered for both functionality and style, ideal for B2B clients looking for durable, flexible, and installation-friendly solutions.
