This won't really do anything for the low frequencies like the 4 inch 703 will, if that is what you are looking for. This is really only going to stop higher frequencies, which are the easiest to stop. You could just buy a duvet/thick blanket/comforter and hang it and get about the same result. (serious, I'm not making a joke) Actually better, because it will cover a larger area. The same reasoning as demonstrated in the first PVD video Ethan provided. The PVD is larger than the SE RF, so it stops hand clap reflections better. (Notice the flat untreated drywall walls so close, those are very reflective) A large thick blanket/comforter will work even better for the same reasons.
But, you will need to get the low frequencies under control after you buy the comforter though and that's where the 703 comes in.
If you're looking for some low cost 703 options (they even have DIY kits) the least expensive quality acoustic products I've found, is a company called Ready Acoustics. "Very nice, respectful and knowledgeable folks" If you want to be treated right that's whom I would talk with and save a bunch of money in the process. Here is a link.
