General Info

We aim to deliver independent and innovative acoustic solutions to enhance comfort and mitigate noise across different sectors.

Based in Sydney, Blackett Acoustics is an independent engineering firm specialising in acoustics, vibration and noise control. We provide acoustical consulting services in areas most affected by noise and vibration issues – that is, architectural, environmental and industrial workplaces.

Blackett Acoustics, an independent engineering firm located in Sydney, specialises in acoustics, vibration, and noise control. Our expertise encompasses a comprehensive range of acoustical consulting services aimed at addressing noise and vibration challenges across various sectors, including architecture, environmental settings, and industrial workplaces. As a leading acoustic consultancy, we help enhance the auditory experience in diverse environments. We offer an extensive array of acoustic solutions tailored to help clients foster comfortable and inviting spaces.

At Blackett Acoustics, our services are designed to preserve property value, mitigate risks, and resolve ongoing issues with various sites. In the realm of architectural and building acoustics, we emphasise the critical importance of sound quality alongside aesthetic considerations. While architects often focus on the visual elements of their designs, the acoustic properties are equally essential for creating functional and enjoyable spaces. When it comes to environmental acoustics, we address sound-related issues that are vital for maintaining a balanced environment.

Furthermore, we ensure that construction activities minimise disturbances to nearby homes and communities. General acoustics is also a significant area of our practice. Many noise complaints arise from inadequately designed or maintained equipment, such as air conditioning units, pool pumps, and industrial machinery. We provide expert guidance and effective design solutions to significantly reduce or eliminate such noise issues. Instead of promoting specific products or technologies, we focus solely on delivering tailored noise, vibration, and acoustic solutions. Contact us!

Residential Floorboard Testing - Great Service

We recently had Engineered Floorboards installed in our unit and as part of the process we have to provide an Acoustic report to the Strata Manager.



After Googling Acoustic Engineers, we came across Blackett Acoustics. The whole process from booking to completing the test was an extremely easy and pleasant process.



Jimi was available to answer any questions that we had and was very helpful.



We had Tai conduct the test at our unit. He arrived exactly when he said he was going to and was very friendly, professional and efficient.



We would happily recommend Blackett Acoustics to anyone who is looking to install floorboards in the future.

We contacted Jimi and his team to conduct an impact noise isolation test in our apartment and prepare a report. It was done professionally and efficiently and he was extremely friendly and easy to communicate with. It was such a positive experience that for our second apartment, we have contacted Jimi again! I would definitely recommend Blackett Acoustics in the future. Thank you!

I contacted Jimi based off the reviews I found off google which were rated very highly. After contacting many Acoustic engineers, the turnaround time as well as competitive pricing that Jimi offered was unmatched. Jimi was easy to communicate with, and did all the tasks as per scope. I'll happily recommend Jimi! Thanks for your help mate!

I needed the acoustics of my laminate flooring tested in my apartment. Being my first time involved in something like this, from first contact Jimi explained everything and helped me understand what needed to be done. He has also been very helpful following the testing and report. I'd recommend Blacketts Acoustics to anyone who needs an acoustic engineer.
