Type Of Flooring Affects Sound Questions

25th September 2017 By Graham Howard Leave a Comment

Hi

The book was really useful, thanks.
Just one question please – we are in the
process of converting a bedroom into a room for my digital piano and we were
wondering if the flooring would affect the piano. Would either carpet or
laminate be detrimental to the sound?

Sue

Reply/ Hi Sue

The type of flooring wouldn’t be detrimental
to the sound…

But the sound would change depending on the
type of surface; hard or soft wood, carpeted,
tiled, rugs, etc.

A carpeted floor would soak up some of the
sound. This would make the sound quieter. It
would also take a little of the brightness
away.

A hard wood floor would amplify the sound…
It would also add brilliance.

Yours pianistically,

Graham Howard
