Room Treatment for Corners - Recommendations?

Do folks have any recommendations for ceiling corner room treatments? I had read some good reviews of such triangle-like treatments from Eight Nerve, but the company appears to be out of business now.

I may also want to try some other treatmetns too, but corners are my priority just now. I'm improvising some pilates tubular exercise type thingies in on the floor in the corners behind the speakers currently, but am guessing I may get better results from proper tube traps, although they can get pricey and I'd prefer to focus on more cost effective solutions.

Any ceiling-corner solutions out there?

Real or fake? How can either have any effect on room modes?

They work great for diffusion. I place them behind my Soundlab speakers for effective,cheap and good looking diffusion.

Real plants have water in them and thus they are heavier and work better then artificial which do little.

I assume your being serious? Diffusion works most with the thin branches and leaves and how they are spread out. I ask if you actually a/b's the two to back up your comment?

I would think the leaves could be most any material - with or without water etc... Not looking to absorb but simply break-up ?

Just looking for more on how you reach your conclusion as I would like to learn something new if it is based on truth. I think the weight of the tree would mean very little for the task at hand?

I don't see them on their website any longer, but Real Traps used to sell artificial plants where the wicker basket was filled with absorption material. Combined with any benefit the branches and leaves might provide it seems to be a reasonably good solution that looks good in a room.
