Fabric for DIY Acoustic Panels

Peter_Klim · Apr 8, 2013

I purchased Owens Corning acoustic insulation and need to get some cloth to wrap them around in. The place online sell burlap material. Thank goodness I went to a fabric store to help me decide what to get - because burlap is such an ugly fabric. The acoustic panel store also sell microsuede, but not in the color I want.

What other types of fabric could I use?

The usual product used for this application is the Guilford of Maine FR701, but they have tons of patterns and styes now:

Most acoustic DIY places sell it by the yard, here's one:

Thanks Jonathan! Better choice of colors in those links.

I used Guilford of Maine "Anchorage" on all of the panels in my listening room. It is more expensive than most but the non-directional pattern stretches easily without sagging.
