LOND ON ROO M K I T INSTALLATION MANUAL Congratulations on purchasing the London Room Kit from Primacoustic. The London Room Kits are easy to install acoustic panels that will effectively absorb a broad bandwidth of frequencies and look great for years to come.

RECORDING STUDIO LEDE LAYOUT The London Room Kits, when installed as suggested, follow a variant of the live-end, dead-end concept referred to as LEDE. The intent of an LEDE layout is to help you to produce tonally balanced recordings that translate well on playback equipment outside your studio. The room is divided into “front” and “rear” sections and includes a well defined listening area or “sweet spot”.

HOME THEATER LAYOUT 12” x 48” Control Columns side walls: Control Columns are located on the sides between the loudspeakers and seating area. Here they control off-axis sound waves from the front speakers before they bounce off the side walls and into the seating area. If left untreated, to much of these powerful primary reflections can reach the seating where they combine with the direct sound causing destructive phase cancellations.

www.primacoustic.com INSTALLING SURFACE IMPALING CLIPS AND WALL PANELS Primacoustic surface impaling clips are designed to provide the installer with a simple and effective method of mounting panels onto walls. The mounting clips feature a series of sharp impaling heads that penetrate the panels for secure semi-permanent mounting without causing serious wall surface defacement. Step 1: Use a bubble-level to make a straight pencil line where the top of the panel(s) will be.
