MPRs

Music Practice Rooms
Eckel’s PRO Music Practice Room (MPR)s are the gold standard of music academies and the music industry. These premium quality, innovative MPRs offer a wide range of options designed for precise practice or recordings applications.

Ideal for education, libraries and private studios. The smaller models have an inlet attenuator in the rear wall and an attenuated exhaust integrated in the ceiling. In the larger models, both attenuators are in the ceiling panels.

All models have a jack panel for greater versatility. The wall panels are mounted on the MPR floor which in turn rests on “air cushion” vibration isolator rails.
