Room Acoustic Treatment with High WAF?


Curious to know if anyone out there knows of great looking acoustic treatments that even a wife could love... :) My room is LIVE! and needs a lot of help. I've been thinking of making some sound panels that look like "art" and hanging them on the wall... Is this effective at not only satisfying our significant others but curing the acoustic issues as well? I'd like to know if anyone has done this with much success and if anyone has suggestions. What are some suggested materials? Where can I find the materials?
Are there pre-made NICE looking acoustic panels? HELP!!

The two sites I have provided below have specialty wall treatments that are beautiful and effective enough to be used in many sound applications, including home systems and recording studios.

Both of these systems have hidden adjustable acoustic control panels, combined with decorator fabrics to meet the decor requirements required by your wife. Best luck on this project, I am applying some of this technology to my own listening room very soon.
