From a low frequency perspective, the best wall is no wall. This applies to your room too. Having no wall on that side makes the room larger at low frequencies, and that's a Good Thing. However, left-right symmetry is important at mid and high frequencies. So if you have absorbing surfaces on one side, the other side should be treated the same. Or you can apply heavy cardboard over the insulation at non-reflection points to match the reflecting wall on the other side.
