Our Primacoustic Radiator Acoustic Treatment Diffuser Review delves into how this elegantly designed panel transforms any listening environment into an expansive, lively soundscape. Optimised for studios, home theatres and discerning audiophile setups, the Radiator harnesses advanced diffusion technology to banish flutter echo without the deadening effects of traditional absorbers. Read on to discover why this special order standout from Primacoustic is the ultimate tool in acoustic treatment.
Design and Craftsmanship
The Radiator measures 24" x 24" x 3" (603 x 603 x 76mm), perfectly sized for standard T-Bar ceilings or as a suspended cloud over your mixing desk or listening position. Built from premium Baltic Birch, it boasts a lustrous laminated wood finish and precision dovetail joints that lend both strength and an architecturally pleasing aesthetic. This isn't just a performance tool—it's a piece of acoustic décor that complements any high-end space.
Acoustic Performance
At the heart of the Radiator is its high-frequency diffusion mechanism. Strategically angled facets break up and scatter sound waves, effectively eliminating flutter echo and standing waves that can colour recordings or degrade clarity in a home theatre. Unlike conventional traps that absorb energy, the Radiator preserves life and air in the sound, creating a natural trailing reverb that mimics the spaciousness of larger venues.
Installation Flexibility
Whether you're integrating a single panel into an existing ceiling grid or ganging multiple units to form a dramatic acoustic cloud, the Radiator accommodates your creative vision. The pre-drilled mounting holes allow easy suspension, and when paired with Primacoustic Broadway panels, you can manage both diffusion and absorption for a balanced sound field.
