bass traps ?

would 2 of these make a good trap?
Roxul Acoustical Fire Batts Mineral Wool 2 inch Case of 6

the site claims its the best bang for the buck.. but if you spend $15 more you can get Rockboard (6pcf) instead of AFB (2.5pcf)
the site makes them out to be about the same.. like the only difference is rigidness!

any suggestion?

..just looking to get the most for my money!!

How deep are your traps? At greater than 4" the AFB will be better.
