MOSQUE SOUND SYSTEMS
Mosques, which stand out with their architectural structure, and mosque sound systems provide excellent performance even in mosques with domes that have acoustic problems, ensuring that the frequencies of human voice are produced in the best way and that the sentences used are heard more understandably and clearly. With its small structure and aesthetic appearance, it is presented in a stylish design. With its directional features, sound waves can be directed towards the carpet and the congregation, which have the highest sound absorption rate, and the sound intensity can be distributed accordingly. In studies conducted according to the reverberation time, it has been observed that the sound reverberation should be between 0-2 seconds for cinema halls, conference halls, TV studios, concert and theater halls to be more suitable for speech.
Reverberation Times in Mosques
In mosques with domes, these reverberation times can last from 2-6 seconds, and the clarity of the sound can also cause preachers to become incomprehensible. According to research, every object covering the mosque's surface has a sound absorption rate. While sound absorption varies between 0.5 and 15 in other surfaces such as tiles, glass, plastered walls, and marble, depending on the carpet thickness, the sound absorption rate is also determined to be between 3-50 percent, based on the mosque occupancy rate and the clothes worn in summer and winter, ranging from 40% to 60%. Naturally, in halls or spaces with high sound reverberation, the speaker will be directed downwards towards the carpet at a 25-degree angle, and backwards towards the congregation at a 25-degree angle, in places with high sound absorption. We definitely recommend that the wall and dome cavity opposite should not be in the line of sight of the sound waves. Thus, we aim to reduce the acoustic reverberation to 2-3 seconds and to ensure your satisfaction.
