Listening Room and Home Theater Consulting Services

Your room, whether used for music or movie reproduction (or perhaps both), is one of the major determinants of overall system performance. 90% of the time your room, not your equipment, is THE limiting factor in final sound and video quality. Improving your room is perhaps the biggest bang-for-the-buck investment you can make in this hobby.

Acoustic Frontiers specializes in the review, design, installation and calibration of high performance listening rooms and home theaters. Our founder, Nyal Mellor, has written many articles on the subject of room acoustics and is one of only ~40 people in the US to hold a Level II certification from the Home Acoustics Alliance.

We provide services locally within the Greater SF Bay Area, nationally and internationally and have developed remote working practices that allow us to take acoustic measurements and perform system setup even when we are not onsite.

Our main offering is a comprehensive four step process for those looking to optimize the performance of their existing space or build a new dedicated room.  We also offer an à la carte approach for those needing professional help with specific aspects of their system such as acoustic treatment design, speaker positioning or subwoofer integration. The message you should take away is that we are flexible in our approach and will tailor our services to your needs.
