Sound absorption classes Classes acoustiques The sound absorption class is determined on a scale from A to E, where A stands for the highest level of sound absorption. So, does this mean a product with no defined sound absorption class is of low quality? Absolutely not. When talking about acoustics, it is important to remember that it is not possible to set a class for every product. This is just one of the many acoustic parameters that can be determined for products with certain structural and usability features defined by standards. Therefore, the lack of this parameter does not indicate poor...
