have a look at the link in my signature. This is exactly what I used for my broadband absorbers.

Sevenways, try looking at a building contractors shop for this type of stuff - look for something like acoustic loft insulator..
Not even acoustic. Just generally fluffy insulation, as thick as you can get it(well at least 12" probably).
 
If you can't get rigid fiberglass, you can compress standard fluffy wall insulation (fiberglass) to achieve a higher density. It'll cost you more but it's way more effective than foam of any type.
Also, you may want to investigate mineral wool. That seems to be more readily available in many places where rigid fiberglass isn't

I believe I read on Ethan's site or somewhere that (12?) inches in depth of regular insulation will work similarly to 4 inches of compressed.
I built a number of 8 inch deep acoustic panels that include, among other things, 12 inches of pink insulation.
They (along with my OC-703 panels) have made a big difference in my little 11 X 11 room.

That was a good guess from me then :D
