If you place big bass traps in the corner you will end up with phase coherent huge punchy bass. I had a sound recording studio and the biggest improvement in my mixing room was putting huge corner bass traps behind the monitors.
Also avoid the crappy foam products, you want rigid fibre rockwool style panels/corner fitments.
This site is a worthwhile read for an overview of what they do.
