Wenger Focuses Acoustical Expertise, Targets Future InnovationWenger Corporation announces a new organizational focus designed to provide customers with leading-edge acoustical solutions. This initiative will be spearheaded by Ron Freiheit, currently Wenger's director of product development and Acoustics. Freiheit, a fellow of the Acoustical Society of America, is an internationally respected researcher and lecturer on acoustical topics. He has presented at national and international conferences; he also holds a US Patent related to virtual acoustic technology. Freiheit will lead Wenger's skilled team of product engineers and technicians as a key industry resource to assist consultants, architects, and facility owners. Recent acoustical innovations from Wenger include the Transcend Active Acoustic System utilizing digital signal processing technology to make performance spaces more multi-purpose. Also launched in 2015, Transform Motorized Acoustical Banners provide affordable variable acoustics. Driven by Freiheit and the Wenger team, these new solutions complement established products like the Diva Acoustical Shell and VAE technology, an industry first, that redefines any rehearsal space, the company says. "We've elevated our commitment to serve the acoustic needs of the performing arts market, building on our company's accomplishments in this segment," says Chris Simpson, president and CEO of Wenger. "By leveraging our expertise and experience with both Wenger and J.R. Clancy solutions, we can better provide facilities worldwide with the industry's largest breadth of custom capabilities and specialized products."
