I know the feeling.

Here are some questions I haven't found a definite answer for:

I'd say you haven't read enough. There should be no rush involved with
treating your room if you want to do a good job. Most if not all of your
questions have been answered in the last week or two. Some will no
doubt address them but I think you'd benefit more from further study.

You have picked up a few wrong ideas like "denser is better" and "different
densities are optimal".

I think reading threads in this forum and its sister Studio-building / acoustics
would be enough but if you really want to learn some detail see this thread
or get yourself a good book or two.
