I don't think you understood the point...your wood panels are going to reflect everything that gets through the foam. It's as if you've put a bit of cellophane over a mirror: the brightness is reduced but the mirror will still reflect. What was suggested was opening those panels up so that they are just frames for foam with a bit of support. However, that won't be very good either. Owens Corning 703 is the stuff you're looking for wrt broadband absorption...thus the Real Traps PVB.

However you might like the effect you're getting with the foam and wood combination. It will be a very fast lower mid slap echo, sort of like an old school analog delay blended in low. If you position things just so you might not get too much phase interference.
