Does anyone have recommendations for a reputable acoustic panel brand in the USA for a small room?
I’ve used GIK Acoustics. They have online tools where you enter in room dimensions, etc. and the tool guides you to the appropriate panels. They also have ways to chat or eMail their experts for advice.

I have vicoustics which is made in Portugal, but many resellers in US. They too have a service to help you plan the room. I did that with them. I had a mix of their stuff and knock off of their stuff made by UA off of amazon or their website. They are Ukrainian, so I love supporting them as well.

Looking very good. I also have ceiling panels and more wall panels from Kvadrat that do the job.
Without good acoustics it makes no sense to have expensive audio equipment.

My room is bigger but I am very jealous of your 11’ ceilings. I think mine are very limiting factor in my room. But it is what it is.
Looks phenomenal . Well done.

Make your own. Mineral wool insulation wrapped with thick felt on to 1/4" pegbord.
Mineral wool + pegboard + thick felt is a solid combo for an acoustic panel! Here’s why it works well:
Mineral Wool – Excellent for absorbing mid-to-high frequencies and providing some bass absorption, especially if it’s 2"–4" thick.
Pegboard – Adds structure while allowing some sound to pass through, preventing excessive reflection. If spaced off the wall slightly (e.g., 1"), it can enhance bass absorption.
Thick Felt – Acts as a durable, aesthetically pleasing outer layer while still allowing sound to be absorbed. Make sure it’s breathable; dense synthetic felt could reflect some high frequencies. A wool-blend or natural fiber felt is preferable.
SAVE 1000s $ oh I forgot to mention i did it. Dead silence. Acoustically measured and stable. Had one problem in the beginning with bass standing in one location in the room, 13 x 23. It was a subwoofer positioning issue.
