“We used Nelson Acoustics to help us understand our consumers’ reaction to a range of complex noise issues. This study crossed a wide range of cultural and architectural factors. David helped us understand the practical aspects of noise and enabled us to make intelligent business decisions. If you’re looking for a Senior Acoustic Engineer, I can – and do – recommend David as the right resource.”

“In my career, I worked with David to address product noise issues as well as customer site installation concerns for networking and IT equipment that are deployed in data centers and networking spaces.   He developed a pragmatic approach for quantifying the products’ acoustic signatures along with recommendations and solutions to reduce product noise emissions. He also helped guide the development and construction of a world class test lab and created its measurement software suite.   He can provide valuable end-to-end solutions for all acoustic needs.”
