First, the mention was of the use of polyester batting, which is used as and available for comforter or blanket stuffing, whioch is carried by WalMArt and at fabric stores. Not blankets as such.Second, resistive based ASC style bass traps need to be as big as one can accomodate and build, the upper limit for practical construction being approx. 16-18" in diameter. It is the internal VOLUME that determines how low and how much at low frequencies they can absorb. A pair of 4 or 6 foot tall ones in the front corners (or two 3 foot tall ones in each corner), and the same or 3 foot ones in the rear corners, is enough to do some good and damp a room's bass, flattening the response slightly, and reducing room modes and obvious resonances.
A diameter of 12" is enough to do some good to, just not down as low.
