Abstract
An acoustic system is disclosed. The acoustic system includes a sound absorptive substrate, and a rigid polyester shell configured to be positioned over the sound absorptive substrate. The rigid polyester shell is configured to be mounted on an interior surface of a building such that at least some sound waves pass through the rigid polyester shell. The shell is configured to provide aesthetic features to the acoustic system.

A cover sized to be positioned over a sound absorptive substrate, the cover comprising:
- a rigid polyester shell having a first surface, a second surface positioned opposite the first surface, and an opening defined in the second surface, the opening being sized to receive the sound absorptive substrate,
- wherein the rigid shell is configured to be mounted on an interior surface of a building,
- wherein the rigid shell further comprises non-woven polyester fibers that define a path for sound waves to pass through the rigid shell, and the rigid shell is devoid of perforations extending through the first and second surfaces to the opening.
