Manhasset acoustic shield deflector - transparent soundproofing stand

The Manhasset Acoustic Shield deflector

The Manhasset Acoustic Shield is designed to help reduce direct sound reaching nearby musicians while maintaining clear sightlines across an ensemble. Its large transparent panel makes it particularly useful around brass, wind and percussion players where controlling the direction of sound can make rehearsals and performances more comfortable.

The clear panel also incorporates a 3.8cm deep ledge, allowing it to double as a large transparent music desk when required. It is a practical addition to orchestras, concert bands, schools, rehearsal rooms, studios and other ensemble environments where musicians need both visibility and effective sound deflection.

Multiple Acoustic Shields can also be positioned together around louder instruments such as drum kits, providing a flexible way to manage direct sound within different ensemble layouts.

Acoustic control without blocking sightlines

The large transparent panel helps redirect direct sound while allowing musicians, conductors and teachers to maintain visual contact across the ensemble. This is particularly valuable in orchestras and bands, where communication and clear sightlines are essential throughout rehearsals and performances.

Its generous surface area provides useful coverage without introducing a visually intrusive barrier, allowing the Acoustic Shield to sit naturally within concert halls, rehearsal rooms, teaching spaces and studios.

Quick and simple adjustment

The Acoustic Shield uses the same straightforward adjustment principles found throughout the Manhasset range. The Magic Finger Clutch allows the panel height to be changed quickly, while the friction-tilt mechanism makes it easy to alter the angle and direct the shield exactly where it is needed.

Once positioned, the shield remains securely in place without relying on conventional adjustment knobs. This makes it particularly practical in schools, orchestras and shared rehearsal spaces where equipment may need to be repositioned regularly for different musicians and ensemble layouts.

Strong, stable and versatile

A robust steel shaft and tubular steel base provide the stability needed to support the large transparent panel while keeping the complete shield manageable to move around a rehearsal or performance space.

The Acoustic Shield can be positioned behind or between individual musicians, used around brass and wind sections, or combined with additional shields around percussion and drum setups. When it needs to be stored or transported, the base collapses and the panel folds back to create a more compact unit.
