It’s 15mm birch ply. I sent a cutting list to the timber merchant then just glued and screwed it together. Sanded and finished with wax.
Just fill the room with records, you’ll be right!

If you’re doing any insulating, buy it now and stack it in the corners (still in packaging).
Looks shit but cheap and very effective. -
cheap semi-temporary sound proofing?
As in just to break up the sound reflection, or to spare your neighbours?
If it's the first a load of speaker fabric from AliExpress stretched over DIY pine frame would be a good option. You could do them to match your interior without being too reddit audiophile, and the timber will come in handy for other stuff.
One of the less gash attempts Google images throws up
Proper curtains are another idea, being both useful and reducing reflection.

Really nice stands for the Harbeths.

@StevePeel looks great! 10mm birch ply? Have you finished it with anything or left it as-is?
I'm pretty jealous, I've finally unpacked mine and it's looking basic (though the "wood" floor looks less gammy than in real life). I'm waiting for party wall, building control, etc etc etc to open up the room, but in the meantime it's a 12' x 12' echo chamber.
Other than buying a load of rugs and egg boxes, does anyone have an options for cheap semi-temporary sound proofing?
Can get 32' sq of wedge acoustic foam tiles on Amazon for £40 which seems reasonable (I really don't mind about how it looks at the moment).
