[QUOTE="Chris Tsanjoures, post: 82696, member: 3514"] Re: DIY Acoustic Panels I recently made a pile of panels with Roxol Stone Wool insulation batts; which I got at Lowes. I used furring strips and simple L brackets to make the frames. I covered them with fabric I got from the local Ocean State Job Lot, but would have had equally successful results at any place that sells fabric by the yard, I'm sure. As far as the posts about fire safe or code etc... These are for my home studio, which is by no means a commercial facility. So, the panels are no more or less (actually - probably much more) fire retardant then the couch behind my mix position or the mattress on my bed. I am OK with this. I am also stoked to have the satisfaction of making 6 very serviceable acoustic panels for an initial investment of about 60$. Before I ran out of fabric, I was able to make 4 panels @ 48"x32" and 2 @ 48"x16". I still have enough batts to make a few more panels and plan on doing so as soon as I find more fabric that isn't denim... [/QUOTE]
