It’s All About Creating the Illusion of Depth

Pictured with me is my good friend and talented artist Cory Anderson. The acoustic diffusion panel between us began with an idea we had more than six months ago: why can’t acoustic treatment also be original artwork?

Using standard 24” × 24” Vicoustic diffuser panels, Cory created an image of Miles Davis that appears and changes depending on your viewing angle.

Acoustic diffusion helps disperse unwanted sound reflections and creates a greater sense of space and depth in the music. Cory’s artwork does something very similar visually.

The result is a unique combination of art and acoustics.

If you’d like to improve your listening room while adding something truly personal, think about an artist or musician you’d love to see brought to life.

We can help do the rest.

Good Food, Great Sound: Char Kitchen Opens on the Waterfront

This past Saturday, the team from Nuts About Hi-Fi attended the soft opening of Char Kitchen Restaurant and Bar. Over the past year, we had the pleasure of installing 16 large flat-screen monitors, dozens of Focal speakers and subwoofers, 16 amplifiers, and a robust network system, all managed by a Control4 system.

This new waterfront venue offers an incredible view and is truly a local jewel. The food and drinks were delicious, and the service was excellent. Owners Chuck and Cassie Huck are wonderful people, and I highly recommend visiting their new space. The food was outstanding, and be sure to save room for dessert.

Caution: High-Quality Music May Cause Uncontrollable Smiling

We recently commissioned Cory, our favorite local artist, to create a cautionary sign for our listening room.

Cory specializes in acoustically friendly artwork for home entertainment rooms and often works with our clients. If you are interested in a piece featuring your favorite musical performer or actor, Cory is highly recommended.
