It's Auralex foam panels. To be honest, I just threw them up there because I recently got a bunch of gear out of storage (some of what's pictured in the photo) and I don't really have a lot of space in my apartment, so everything I could set up or stick to a wall, I did.
Those particular foam panels are just good for higher freq reverberation and flutter echoes. They do absolutely nothing for lower freqs and standing waves, as they're nowhere near dense enough for any kind of absorption it would take. They're also not set up properly. Whether they're effective or not in my setup is debatable... As you can see, my desk is improperly in a corner, which is a huge no-no in regards to my speakers. The speakers themselves are too close together, and my listening position isn't correct. And the rest of the room isn't very acoustic-friendly either. All of this is because of space limitations, but it's not really a problem for my current usage, which is minimal.
The real fun will start when I get a house and convert one of the rooms to a studio. And I'll finally be able to set up my drums.
