Consisting of clear plastic shields mounted on a pole, acoustic shields are designed to protect musicians seated in front of loud instruments, particularly brass. At Chamberlain music we have acoustic shields from RAT and Manhasset that have proved to be a popular choice for orchestras, schools, studios and music groups.

Not only can they be used to control sound levels but can also be used as bio screens to protect neighbouring players from airborne respiratory droplets for added safety in schools or large orchestras and sessions. With the help of these acoustic shields it makes it easier for larger groups of musicians to play in a small enclosed space, so they are a great option if you are required to maintain a safe work environment.

RAT stands acoustic screens

With over 40 years of experience in manufacturing high quality music stands found in the top venues around the world, RAT stands have made BioScreens and Acoustic shields to the same professional standard and both utilise the strong, stable, and stackable RAT Performer music stand base.

All our RAT acoustic screens have solid bases for extra stability and the rubber feet ensure 3-point contact on uneven surfaces whilst protecting the floor. They have been finished to the highest quality and coated in scratch resistant epoxy means that you can guarantee a long-lasting product.

RAT-65Q10 - RAT Acoustic screen

Purpose built as an acoustic screen for musicians, it is designed to deflect sound waves away from the player immediately in front of it, while providing maximum visibility for the player behind. Much like the RAT stands Performer3 and Concert stands, the base design ensures great stability and is easily stackable for convenient storage – perfect for school and orchestras with limited space. These acoustic shields are used around the world for recording and live performances by professional musicians, groups, schools and amateur studios alike.

Manhasset acoustic screens

Chamberlain Music are the official and exclusive distributors in the UK United Kingdom for Manhasset Specialty Music stands – we import container shipments of music stands direct from the Factory in Yakima, Washington State, USA. They are extraordinarily strong, and we offer lifetime warranty with any purchase because we know that the high-quality design is guaranteed to last.

Manhasset screens are attached to the Manhasset renowned knob-free stand with ‘magic finger’ shaft clutch and friction tilt neck joint. This means the stand can be pushed or pulled into any position and will remain secure without turning a single screw. The lack of adjusters doesn’t only make it easier to use but it also gives the overall design a much sleeker and classier look.

MAN2000 Manhasset acoustic shield deflector

This acoustic shield is designed to protect the hearing of players stationed near loud instruments but there are also many other useful applications including studio use to reduce unwanted noise or microphone bleed or surround a drum kit with multiple shields to protect other musicians’ hearing.

Top features of the MAN2000 acoustic shield deflector:
A 1.5in lip means it can double as a large transparent music stand
Reflect live feedback for mic'd players and singers without a monitor speaker
French horn players can place behind the instrument bell to act as a deflector
Use in the studio to reduce unwanted noise or microphone bleed
Surround a drum kit with multiple shields to protect other musicians' hearing

In addition, as well as it’s acoustic shielding properties, the MAN2000 also provides an ideal bio-safety screen so all players can play and create music together while a safe playing environment is permitted. The large window is made of clear Lexan polycarbonate resin which is much more durable and effective than glass or acrylic.

Great quantity discounts for schools and venues are available for these shields for the best value way to purchase multiple acoustic protection shields.
