What is Acoustic Transparency?

Acoustic Transparency is a big deal for home theater enthusiasts and audiophiles alike. But what exactly does acoustic transparency mean? Acoustic transparency is a concept related to maintaining acoustic fidelity as sound passes through the screen material. An acoustically transparent screen material allows speakers to be positioned behind the screen, maximizing the viewing and listening experience.

Which screen materials are acoustically transparent? Severtson Screens offers various acoustically transparent materials, which are perfect for your pro A/V or home theater project. They are offered with a wide selection of screen types and size options. A popular option is our SAT-4K, which is pictured above with our acclaimed 4K Thin Bezel screen.

Acoustic transparency offers many benefits: in a home theater, the most realistic sound is achieved by placing speakers directly behind the screen, so that the sound comes straight at you. Additionally, this placement of the speakers behind the screen maximizes the available wall space, which means larger screen sizes are possible.
