ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for supporting an acoustical diffuser panel within a structure. A preferred apparatus includes a rigid support member fabricated from an acoustically absorptive material. The support member has a bottom and upstanding side walls that define a well that is sized to receive a diffuser panel therein. The diffuser panel may comprise a plurality of column members that are integrally formed with a planar bottom surface and extend therefrom. At least one column member is longer than at least one other column member. Another diffuser panel that can be successfully used has a series of elongated columns that extend for the width or length of the panel. At least one column member extends a distance above the bottom of the support member that differs from the distance that another column extends above the support member when the panel is received therein. A method for installing at least one acoustical diffuser assembly into a wall structure and an acoustical wall structure are also disclosed.
