I think DIY is a great way to go. There are other DIY designs online as well, not sure how good they are but really, perfection isn't needed here. The one thing I'd warn against is overdoing it. People who are getting into room treatment tend to think "Hey, this is great, more must be better!" but what you're aiming at is the sweet point . Two channel stereo requires a contribution from the room because it doesn't include enough ambiance. If the room is too dead, imaging will be great, but the sound won't come alive. So I'd start with a couple in the front corners, then try adding the rear corners, then maybe between the speakers, then along the walls. If the room starts to get too dead and you still don't have the bass resonances under control, you'll need to use resonators instead of absorbers. Also don't forget that planars like diffusers at their first reflection points, particularly behind the speakers as we discussed a while ago, but also on the sides. And that diffusion and mid/high absorption can usually be achieved naturally, with bookshelves, carpets, furniture, wall hangings, and drapes. Used minimally, of course.
