Congratulations on purchasing a SonoFlat™ SFS-184™ System from Auralex®Acoustics.
You’re now on your way to creating a world class listening environment.
SonoFlat Systems offer a sophisticated look by utilizing a specialized flat-faced cut of
Auralex’s industry-leading Studiofoam®. The SFS-184 system contains SonoFlat Panels,
SonoColumns and Q’Fusors, which when used together, provide incredibly effective
broadband absorption and diffusion in any room. Use the SFS-184 alone for treatment
of small to medium-sized rooms or in combination with other Auralex products for full
control of larger spaces.
