acustici

Acustici is the Italian plural form of the adjective acustico, meaning “acoustic” or “pertaining to sound or hearing.” It stems from Latin acousticus, itself from Greek akoustikos, derived from akouein “to hear.” The feminine forms are acustica (singular) and acustiche (plural), while the masculine are acustico and acustici. The term is used to describe properties, devices, or spaces associated with sound or acoustics.

In music, acustici describes instruments that are not electrically amplified, as opposed to elettrici. Common phrases include strumenti acustici, chitarre acustiche, and pianoforti acustici. In architecture or room acoustics, it appears in expressions such as qualità acustiche, trattamento acustico, and architettura acustica to discuss how sound behaves in spaces.

In science and engineering, acustici is related to the field of acoustics (acustica), which studies sound waves, resonance, absorption, and propagation. The term also appears in everyday language to distinguish sound-related aspects from electrical or electronic ones, for example when describing materials, surfaces, or environments with particular acoustic properties.

Acustici as a term is a general descriptive word in Italian and is not associated with a single, universally recognized organization or entity. Its meaning is determined by context, typically signaling connections to sound, hearing, and acoustic phenomena across disciplines.
