Owens Corning 703 vs. Roxul Safe 'n' Sound?

I'm no DIY'er in general but had a decent outcome making 703 panels.  They helped tremendously in my room to kill the first-reflection points.  I've got a total of four 24x48x2 panels in the room and things are sounding great.  I do think that more panels would be too much.  You can see a pic of them in my system page.

Hi Eric

My Room A is enclosed on the outside of the drywall with Roxul Safe N Sound. The Ceiling and two walls. This was done to insulate the room sounds from the rest of the house. The other two walls are against the house walls with regular insulation on the other side of the drywall.

Something to consider, just throwing it out there.

Curtains of various heavy and light materials work and look good. I am using them extensively in the adjacent room. You could hang one ceiling rail behind your listening chair. Curtains, offer the extra advantage of hiding extra speakers. :^)

You could also use one Magneplanar Tympani speaker behind your chair right now - try it. They absorb. I know guys with Acoustats doing this.

Cheers Chris

Sorry about that

Thanks Brad, the Acoustimac line looks great, and reasonably priced. A 4' x 4' x 2" panel is only $122, but the shipping to me (NW) is $140! Guess I'll make it myself.

Try the ATS Acoustics website.  You can get two 24" x 48" x 2" panels with Guilford of Maine fabric for $129.  ATS is in Illinois and I'm in California.  Shipping to me would only be $24.02 for these two panels.  I don't know what it would be to your location.  It might be the 4' x 4' size that is killing shipping.  Having two 2' x 4' panels shipped instead might be better.
