Dream tracks 2024
ACS is enormously proud of its newest sound acoustic solutions, which can be seen being used here at the opening event of the new multi-dimensional experience ‘Dream tracks (Droomsporen)’ in the impressive Station Hall of the Maliebaan station – a beautiful space for a meeting in the Spoorwegmuseum in Utrecht, but complicated in terms of acoustics.
The Challenge
Having a conversation, let alone a presentation, can be challenging in a space where there is a lot of reverberation. Fortunately, ACS has many innovative solutions to improve the sound quality in a space like this, and our Sound Absorbing Cylinders is our newest solution that makes this problem a thing of the past. The speakers were therefore clearly audible and visitors could easily have a conversation during the drinks.
AMPLIFYING the EXPERIENCE
The Sound Absorbing Cylinders were placed in the Spoorwegmuseum for the opening of… ‘Dream Tracks’ a new multi-dimensional experience in the Maliebaan station. These cylinders absorb the sound we don’t want to Amplify the Experience!
INSIGHT into HISTORY
The Railway Museum (Het Spoorwegmuseum) is the Dutch national railway museum. In 1954 it moved to the former Maliebaan station, in Utrecht. The museum offers a wonderful insight into the history of train travel, and can be hired for events.
The high ceilings in the Station Hall presented a challenge in terms of the acoustics. Thanks to ACS’s innovative ‘Sound Absorbing Cylinders’ – this problem was immediately removed. The effect was great, and it can be said with certainty that these cylinders are very effective at absorbing unwanted sound.

FUNCTIONAL and STYLISH
The Sound Absorbing Cylinders were hung from the two trusses, one positioned at the entrance of the room, and the other behind the stage. These cylinders were lit from above, so they were fully visible, as they are not only functional, but also stylish. ACS can use different coloured lights to make the cylinders appear as a different colour.
