Best Cheap acoustic wall treatments?


I am converting a 12x20 space into a home theater and want to treat the room. The walls and ceiling are drywalled, with thin carpeting on the floor. Are there any inexpensive wall panels or the like that are available? Should I consider draping the entire room in fabric? Thanks for your thoughts.

Ok,I stole this idea from AVAhifi. Go to the redecorating place and ask to see their sample book for accoustic fabric wallpaper. It goes up just like paper wallpaper and is available in different colors and patterns. Becuase there is not much call for it,it is expensive.

You can "paper" the ceiling and doors. That plus carpet should give you a room that absorbs a lot of sound.
