Whisperroom Review
Every single booth is equipped with an efficient ventilation system, which can also be detached if you don’t want to use it. Each such system can circulate air at about 80 cubic feet per minute and includes one intake duct, one exhaust duct and a remote fan unit.
Every single door window uses laminated safety glass that comprises of layers of ¼” thick glass, the glass itself is very efficient in reducing noise to a great extent.
With the help of slotted rubber plugs, you can easily pass through all the necessary communication cables, electric cables or even computer cables.
Every model contains enough of Auralex acoustical foam that covers about 1/3 of its interior surface. Every single sheet sizes 2” x 4” and is 2” thick, the same is attached to the interior with the help of a Velcro. Depending on the environment that you wish to create you can either attach or detach the same.
All units come with a set of basic start-up lighting, but for those who want a bit more, you can always pick something from their optional Studio lights.
All models come with a wireless remote switch, to control the ventilation system.
Many times, after buying a basic model some of you might feel to extend or expand your unit a bit more. For such customer’s various expansion packages are available for most of the basic models. Any expansion package comes up with 2 additional walls, 1 floor, 1 ceiling and seam seals.
Features (standard for all their products):
- 12” x 30” – Door Window
- Ventilation system and a remote switch
- Acoustical foam which attaches with Velcro
- Cable passages
- Fluorescent light
- Duct covers
Optional Features:
- Wall windows – 4 sizes; 30” window, 36” window, 42” window and 48” window
- Caster plate – an additional floor component with wheels to aid the mobility of your booth. The same also provides a good amount of downward noise control.
- Ventilation silencing system – to further reduce noise coming because of the airflow, the VSS can be efficiently used, which consists of two exhaust ducts, hoses and adapter.
- Wide-door access – any unit with a 5’ wall can accommodate a wide-access door, which is essential for applications that require large units or components to go in and out of the booth. The wide-door access already includes a 16” x 48” window.
- Acoustic tuning package – one of the most common problems related to acoustics is the standing waves (because of parallel walls), to get rid of this issue, all units from Whisperroom can be efficiently equipped with ATP, which provides you the required flexibility to change the interior acoustic environment of the booth depending on your requirements.
- Isolation enhancement package – for certain applications, the noise reduction capability of a standard booth will not suffice. Hence, all standard-units come with a pre-configured installation set-up, so that you can easily attach other secondary isolation components.
- Height extension up to 10”
- Exterior fan silencer – since an exterior ventilation fan has about 38dB noise rating, by using an exterior fan silencer, you can efficiently get rid of that minute disturbance also. The number of EFS units you need to install, entirely depend on the size of your booth.
- Additional Auralex foam exterior – each sheet of auralex is 2’ x 4’ and about 2” thick, you can customize the acoustic depending on your requirement and change the environment inside the booth.
