I got it at Lowes Hardware online, they didn't have it at the store. Item #89017 47x23x3
Stone Wool Insulation Batts. Cost me about $53 I think. I had my panels made 47x23x2 so the insulation would puff out a tad bit, the fabric fits and looks better that way.
I added up all the equip. needed in my DIY acoustic panels that were 24x48 & 2in thick. Rocksol insulation, wood, breathable Duck fabric from Wally World and I spent approx. $20 per panel.
The biggest pain was stapling the fabric to the wood. Keeping it nice and stretched and straight, UGGH. The ATS Acoustics were probably one of the least expensive online but when you DIY there is that Pride in your work thing. :-) $20 compared to $52 big difference. My Lowes did not carry Roxul, Online only.
Instead of a frame, how about mounting a piece of Roxul Safe n' Sound to a 1/4" piece of plywood, all wrapped in fabric and then glued to the wall with liquid nails (no hard point resonant transfer into the wall or frame by using screws)? Would this work just as well ?
I purchased the Roxul material as the sound material (better than fiberglass & no itching) and had a friend make me the 24x48 inch wood frames. I then purchased the material to cover the frame at Wal-Mart and have my first sound panel hanging up now. I think my cost was approx. $15-17.00 per panel. Much less and just as professional as anything on the internet.
Yes, that would be a good idea and work well, but not everyone has a brad nailer so we opted to constructed with everyday household tools. Thanks for the feedback, all is appreciated!! :-)
a bit overconstructed with two 2" screws + angle brackets and their screws on each corner for something that hangs on a wall -- but a very professional looking final product. Think if I were making it I'd hit the corners with a brad nailer to hold them in place for the angle brackets and leave them at that.
where would I buy that at

I tried going to my local Lowes and they did not know what OC 703 was. All they had was the Pink fiberglass.
