B2B Trade Partnership: Cinema Shells & Acoustic Architecture

Become an Integration Partner: We Build the Shell, You Drive the Tech

For high-end home cinema integrators, the structural room build can often be a major bottleneck. Managing traditional builders who do not understand acoustic bridging, running complex cable pathways through isolated structures, and dealing with tricky fabric wall alignment can derail project timelines and erode your margins.

We are a specialised, engineering-led partner dedicated entirely to cinema design, acoustic room treatment, and structural build-outs.

As proud members of CEDIA and the Institute of Acoustics (IOA), we speak your language. We step in to handle the heavy engineering, structural soundproofing, and premium architectural fabric tracking, delivering a perfectly calibrated acoustic environment ready for your technical first and second-fix installation.

Why Top AV Integrators Partner With Arthur Acoustics

1. Engineering-Grade Acoustic Credentials

Stop risking system performance on traditional builders who compromise isolation. Our design team holds the IOA Diploma in Acoustics and Noise Control and is fully trained in the HAA (Home Acoustics Alliance) Home Cinema Acoustics. We ensure the room's physical layout matches the performance demands of your Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, or Trinnov layouts.

2. Fewer Project Bottlenecks

We take full responsibility for the messy structural phases—including decoupled floating walls, architectural noise isolation, technical HVAC ducting, and premium fabric upholstery. You can scale your business by focusing your internal engineering resource strictly on high-margin AV design, programming, and technical commissioning.

Technical Trade Services We Provide For Your Projects

Engineered "Room-Within-A-Room" Shells: Complete structural decoupling using specialized isolation clips, acoustic hangers, and dense floating floors to eliminate mechanical bridging.
HAA-Aligned Room Treatments: Strategic, calculations-based placement of high-performance bass trapping, diffusion, and absorption to optimize the physical frequency response before you even turn on your calibration microphone.
Site-Built Fabric Tracking Systems: Flawless fabric wall installations using premium mills (Kvadrat, Novasuede, Camira). We provide razor-sharp profiles that conceal your in-wall speakers, subwoofers, and acoustic panels completely from view.
Architectural LED Profiles: Precision integration of custom recessed LED lighting tracks directly into fabric panels with zero fraying, keeping lines straight and clean.
Acoustically Isolated Enclosures: Custom construction of speaker back-boxes, decoupled projector hush-boxes, and sound-sealed technical AV rack closets.

How We Collaborate: The Project Lifecycle

[Phase 1: Shared Blueprinting] ➔ [Phase 2: First-Fix Isolation] ➔ [Phase 3: AV Integration Window] ➔ [Phase 4: Fabric & Finishing]

Acoustic Blueprinting: We collaborate during your early design phase. You provide your preferred speaker coordinates and technical spec; we model the room geometry, calculate early reflections, and plan the structural isolations.
First-Fix Structural Build: Our in-house build team installs the isolated timber framing, high-density acoustic insulation, and acoustic board layers.
AV Integration Window: We hand over a clean, empty, isolated shell to your engineering team. This gives you clear, unobstructed access to pull cables, install speaker back-boxes, mount brackets, and complete your hardware first-fix.
Fabric & Aesthetic Tuning: Once your first-fix is signed off, we install the calculated acoustic treatment arrays and finish the room with our tensioned fabric wall tracks.
Joint Commissioning: We assist during your final audio calibration, ensuring the physical room performance matches your digital DSP tuning seamlessly.

Protect Your Audio Performance. Elevate Your Projects.

Let us eliminate the hassle of structural shell construction. By partnering with Arthur Acoustics, you guarantee your high-end speaker packages deliver their exact calculated performance without structural rattles, modal bass peaks, or client complaints regarding sound leakage.
