The inner walls are made from very weak plasterboard, not strong enough for a book shelf, and so presumably not strong enough for panels (which I imagine will get very heavy at 90 kgm^3).

free-standing (which then also lets you move them around).
Yes, I assume that is the route I will have to go down. I'm a bit worried about losing extra floor space to floor supports though, as they would be unstable if just stood up in their ends?

Don't forget the reflections coming from the ceiling, and you would benefit from
quite a bit of absorption on the rear wall behind you.
Ah yes of course, ceiling first reflection points will be the main priority. I would love to build a completely treated roof as in Ethan Winer's videos, but I am not sure of how I would go about constructing this. Also, the floor is carpeted, so at the moment I think I have the inverse of the recommended hard floor, soft ceiling?
