I want to invest in some DIY room treatment. Right now I'm in a cluttered room about 15'x17'x8 approximatively. I've been reading the sticky post, but am not understanding it all the way. I see things like 703, 706 etc. Ridged fiberglass, or rockwool, etc. 2", 4" etc.
So hears what I need to know. For bass traps, am I suppose to hang a 4" thick panel in the corner facing the room or buy what ever thickness and cut it up into peices & glue it into a 2'x2' square and hang that in the corners? What material is best for bass traps? I would like to get the most I can out of at least a somewhat complete DIY Room Treatment setup for like $100-150. Thats what I can spend right now.
I already have some 4" wedge foam in 2'x4' panels. Where would you recommend I place these? I have 4 of them.
Also, is using this DIY room treatments Fire safe? Do I have to watch out for particles in the air with these? What if they're cut to make Squares? or do you just buy whole 2x2 sheets or what? What material should they be wrapped in? I've heard burlap, but read cloth in the sticky.
I'll keep reading the sticky, but all know how with how to make these bass traps, and things I should be aware of when doing that are appreciated. Some pointers on what material to use would be good to so I can start looking for a distributer.
Thank you
