Technology :
A unique sound experience

The patented ‘Bernie Sound’ (VST) technology transforms any material into speakers. A plain, rigid surface made of wood, plaster, plastic or any other composite material will produce a pure, enveloping sound.

Elements of your environement like windows, ceilings or mirrors can take on a new function, producing a high quality, feel-good sound. The perception and quality of sound is equal wherever you are standing in the room.

HIGH POTENTIAL

Whether at home, on public transport or in commercial premises, the potential applications of this technology are countless, particularly when put in the hands of comfort-seeking individuals and professionals looking to stand out and bring added value to their daily lives.

Simple, comfortable and discreet

AN INVISIBLE ACOUSTIC DESIGN


Bernie Sound technology has a wide range of applications. This is particularly due to the diverse materials with which the technology is compatible. These include glass, wood, plaster, plastic and all other composite materials.

Bernie Sound products are easy to install and have a unique, invisible character. They can blend in seamlessly with your environment without changing the appearance of any part of the room, providing a wholesome and enchanting setting. The sound fills the room without changing its appearance.

Complete, refined innovation

SMOOTH ADJUSTMENT OF FREQUENCIES


Bernie Sound technology is fundamentally improving transducer technology, introducing a new patented feature where the magnetic exciter and coil are supported by the coupling plates in a unique and innovative way.

This new approach allows the frequencies from the transducer to be completely adjusted according to the surface and desired use.

UNIVERSALITY

The bandwidth ranges from 40 to 14,000 Hz for a full, balanced and harmonious sound.

Preparing the room

CLEAN UP REVERBERANT ENVIRONMENT


Sometimes the spaces where you want to introduce your sound may reverberate too much. Hopman ST has therefore developed an anti-reverberating panel in order to optimize the acoustic comfort in the room.
The « Bernie Soundless» passed the absorption tests at the CTTM laboratory in Le Mans (France) with flying colours. It obtains the best performance on the market. This product is intended for use in noisy public spaces such as canteens, company restaurants, and other rooms that reverberate sound.

« These are the best results on the market. »

Bernie Sound GIVES LIFE TO MATTER

Innovation is indeed part of its strategy and DNA. Thus, the company also develops a range of connected and ready to install products for home (mirror, headboard, television panel).

A second wave of developments is in the pipeline, it shall include the development of a loudspeaker for pools, a Bluetooth stereo amplifier, etc.

Bernie SOUNDLESS

ANTI-NOISE


The Bernie Sound philosophy is based on ensuring the acoustic wellbeing of its customers. Consequently, we don’t install our products in overly reverberant spaces, as this could result in discomfort. Drawing on this experience, we have developed the Bernie Soundless™ panel for public spaces such as canteens, company restaurants and other meeting areas.

The absorption of ambient sound by the Bernie Soundless™ panel has been tested under scientific conditions by the Le Mans Technology Transfer Centre (CTTM) in France. Hopman Soundless™ offers the best performance on the market.

By reducing the perception of reverberation in the room, Bernie Soundless™ lessens the sensation of ambient noise, dramatically improving the acoustic comfort of the listener.
