I put 3500 down towards my home studio treatments in a 30x15 room. I used eq wizard when I was finished and saw +/- 5db across the spectrum which is pretty great considering most professional studios are at +/- 3db. I have to tweak a couple things and I’ll be closer to that gold standard.
I used 17 bags of Safe n sound insulation (12 Batts per bag),33x 4x8 MDF board, and fabric from Joanne’s…but this wasn’t a listening area, it was for a studio with a drum kit lol. You’ll want some clouds over the listening area, bass traps in the corners, and some panels behind and to the side of the speakers. If it were me, I’d try to turn the listening area into a rectangle somehow, which would mean adding some sort of false wall…or not, probably not necessary. The main thing is to keep it as dead as possible around you’re listening area but I’d highly recommend using eq wizard before and after.
