Knowledge Center
Plain-language guides to the questions we're asked most, written for the people who have to decide rather than the people who sell. The Knowledge Center covers all three practices — acoustic design, AI strategy and digital media — and grows as the questions come in.
Acoustic design & consulting
For facilities directors, superintendents, office managers and anyone holding a proposal they didn't write.
The $100,000 Sound System Nobody Can Understand
Why spending more on commercial audio doesn't guarantee intelligibility.
Your AV Proposal Looks Impressive. But What Are You Actually Buying?
A plain-English guide to evaluating commercial audio proposals before signing.
How these are written
Every guide is written by Merry Grant and reviewed for technical accuracy before it is published. Figures are attributed to the public sources they come from, with the date they were read. Nothing here is a substitute for a review of your own room, proposal or workflow — that is what a conversation is for.
