yes. A mirror reflects sound with better fidelity than a wall because its surface is harder than most walls.
More Information:
A surface may be considered "smooth" if the largest feature of its texture is smaller than about 1/20 of a wavelength. Most walls would easily pass this test. Further, the rigidity of a wall is important in the reflection process. A smooth concrete wall would reflect sound better than one of wood, and that in turn would be better than sheet polystyrene foam.

Why are infrared waves used in fiber optics?
This is because infrared can travel farther with less distortion, i.e., it has less attenuation.
What is less accurate about a Mercator projection?
what is one problem with the mercator projection
What does distorted mean?
A distortion is the alteration of the original shape of an object, image, sound, waveform or other form of information or representation. Distortion is usually unwanted, and in practice there are many methods employed to minimize it.The term is often used for the observation or impression as well, as in a distorted view of the world.In some fields, distortion may be desirable. Such is the case with Electric Guitar distortion, which is the alteration of the sound waveform to add unique characteristics.
What can you say about the amplitude of a wave that produces a soft sound?
Soft sound means less intense. Intensity is directly proportional to the square of the amplitude. So amplitude will be less for soft sound.
What is an Eckert IV projection?
It is an equal area projection. that has less shape distortion near the equator and the poles compared to other equal area projections.
What is a pedal for a guitar used for?
To change the sound, For instance an overdrive pedal boosts the sound making it louder and clearer, where as a distortion pedal makes it louder but less clear.
Can you use a mirror to reflect sunlight into a shady area of your yard so that you can grow vegatables?
I'm sure you can. Sunlight will be marginally less strong but more than enough for growing crops. Just be sure to point the mirror such that it doesn't reflect into your neighbors' yard at different angles of the sun.
What bands sound like dismember?
Entombed, Grave, Carnage and Bloodbath all sound like Dismember. These bands are all Swedish death metal and all use a characteristic buzzsaw distortion tone. Other less similar bands are Sacramentum, Runemagic and Unleashed. Less similar still are In Flames and Dissection.

Which class of amplifier have maximum distortion?
Class C since output cycle is less than 90 degrees for a full input. But it has highest power gain going upto 98%. And the exact term used for distortion is Total Harmonic Distortion since the distortion produced will be in multiples of the fundamental frequencies.
What will reflect light?
Any object will reflect light. Some more, some less.

What color reflects the most lights?
white ...of course.
How does polishing let you see your reflection?
The smoother the reflecting surface the less the micro-distortion of the reflected image.
Which map has less distortion a small area map or a large area map?
A small area map.
Why do light coloured objects reflect radiation more than dark coloured objects?
Because dark colours absorbs light, and energy;and its named absortion coefficient. ============================== Some substances and objects made from them reflect more light and absorb less. Other substances and objects made from them reflect less light and absorb more. The ones that reflect more and absorb less are the ones that appear lighter to us. Why ? Because they absorb less light and reflect more of it toward our eyes.
