SonIQ is an acoustic consultancy company specialized in building and room acoustics based in Belgium. Through Qsources’ distributor Akron SonIQ initially purchased the Qtap – lightweight tapping machine which then was followed by a trial of our Qoms2 – monopole sound source. SonIQ really liked our lightweight solution and decided to acquire the source directly following on from the positive user experience during the trial !
The source was immediately put at use in the acoustic optimization of a series of sports halls throughout Flanders. Bart Van de Velde, owner of SonIQ, explains: ‘The measurement sessions had two main objectives. Firstly the reverberation time T30 in most sports halls is higher than the allowable norm whilst the users do not always experience this as a problem. Additionally the reverb time as measured is higher than the calculated value as a result of a flutter echo and the avoidance of this echo is difficult to predict.” Bart further detailed SonIQ’s choice for the Qoms2 in doing these measurement: ” The Qoms2 offers a very high combined sound power level combined with extreme light weight whilst the point source characteristics are a great advantage definitely in the analysis of reflections. The overall set is complete (including the high quality tripod and transport bag) which provides for easy handling of the equipment”. Bart concluded by stating: “We look forward to doing additional measurements with the Qoms2, formulating our recommendations and, hopefully, improving Flemish sports performance !
