Common acoustic mistakes in sanctuaries

Most disappointing results in sanctuaries come from a few predictable mistakes.

1. Over-deadening a room built for congregational singing
2. Placing panels where they block stained glass or architecture
3. Buying by the panel instead of by the absorption the room needs.
4. Confusing absorption with soundproofing.

Avoid all of these by starting with the panel count and the placement guide.
