PCP | Piano Carbon Platform

Pianos radiate energy in many directions. They radiate from the piano bed to the floor, from the bed to the ceiling and out the wood sides of the piano. If the lid is left on, then you have another series of reflections from the lid to the bed and then out towards the front. How do you manage all of those radiating sources of energy. It is difficult. That is why you do not hear many quality piano recordings.

Low frequency absorption is achieved through the use of our carbon technology. All energy below 100 Hz. is treated with absorption through our carbon diaphragmatic process. Since the piano bed (speaker) is placed close to a boundary(floor), low frequency energy is magnified and proper rates and levels of absorption must be applied just as with placing a hi-fi speaker close to a wall.

Middle and high frequency unwanted reflections from the floor to the piano bed are also reduced to minimize comb filtering. Comb filtering occurs because of the back and forth travels of sound energy from the bed to the floor and then back from floor to the piano bed producing a series of unwanted reflections.

To deal with two main issues comb filter and SBIE, we have created our Piano Carbon Platform. It is a smaller version of our ACDA-10 unit with a higher resonant frequency and unit height of only 10″.  Units have non stick surfaces on both sides and are placed side by side to form a platform.

You can choose a complete platform to position your whole piano on or individual modules that fit between the foot pedals and the far leg.

Numerous fabric options are available.
