acousticians
Experts in sound
Acousticians are specialists in acoustics—the science of sound.
They study how sound behaves in spaces and may design concert halls, recording studios, or noise barriers.
Some focus on architectural acoustics, others on underwater sound or audio engineering.
The acousticians recommended adding panels to reduce echo in the auditorium.
