The characteristics of concert halls, conference room and meeting rooms exhibit complex problematics and are influenced by the following factors:
  • the geometrical configuration of a room,
  • the choice and distribution of absorbing and reflecting surfaces,
  • the reverberation times,
  • the sound pressure level of interferences,
  • the quality of any amplifier system for sound reproduction.
The characteristic of a room can be adapted to the use of a room with adjusted solutions.

The SIA standard 181 sets the acousical requirements for classrooms and gyms:
