What density rockwool are you using ?

45kg/m3 is the one I bought. I also found 100kg/m3 but from what I've read it might have been a bit too much. It appears I got a real deal on the rockwool as I paid 60 euro (~$90) for 3 packs of 8 panels each (2'x4'x2").

I realized I haven't yet taken a pic of the panel in place. I am waiting for the camera batteries to recharge and will take a pic of the panel in place.

I consider this trap to be a failure in terms of design. Although it made a very audible difference now that it's in place.

Version 2 will be made in pieces, each 60cm height as a separate panel. This huge "thing" was impossible to handle and mount on hidden anchors. I thought I was taking a shortcut by making a single panel but the weight and size are both too much for even two strong men to to accurately handle.
