Abstract
An acoustic fabric-mounting system includes a fabric stretched across a wooden frame of an acoustic panel. Some frame members are fixed to a wall, while other frame members are connected to one or more brackets which allow them to move relative to the fixed members along the wall. A tensioning bracket mounted beneath the panel exerts an expansion force against the movable frame member, tending to move it translationally apart from the fixed frame member, so that the fabric is stretched taut. The tensioning bracket is spring-loaded and adjustable.
