Auralex Acoustics is breaking new ground by launching a gallery of custom-printed acoustical panels. Auralex Acoustics is exclusively the first to market SonicPrint, its custom-printed, artistic ProPanels featuring “The Art of Sound” theme which blends unlimited design and style options for any room with the company’s acoustically proven technology of its ProPanel product line.
That is the question I have. I went to the site and you have to fill out a form and send it in to them and they contact you. The minimum budget amount on the form was I think 350-500.
I'm interested as well. I saw on their website you can submit the artwork you want. Screenprinting normally is fairly expensive to setup, but maybe they have a process where it wouldn't be too expensive to do small runs and one offs. It's one of those things that could turn out really good or really bad, depending on how to approach it.
The samples they were showing at CEDIA were amazing quality. It is some kind of special printing process that does not hamper the transparency of the fabric, so that it retains the proper acoustic qualities. But the prints were amazing. They had one panel that was made from a black and white photograph of a staff member and his wife on their wedding day, and it was stunning. Very cool.
Having worked there, I can tell you that Auralex did - and probably still does - all their Art in-house: graphics & typesetting for ads, flyers and catalogs; trade show displays & banners; POP stuff; etc. Hardly anything, save for mass printing (e.g., thousands of catalogs), was farmed out when I was there. If that's still the case, I'm guessing that they can probably offer relatively competitive pricing on something like this due to having the small-run capabilities in-house.

Thank you, I got some Sonosuede panels from them a while back, which were by no means cheap, which leads me to ask.... define "competitive pricing" as it looks like they are the first to offer such a option... please correct me if I'm wrong...

Don't take my word for it. By all means, price-shop:
