Absorbers or Diffusors for 1rst/2nd refl. points?

Any thoughts on this: from my reading it seems easy enough to build diffusors for specific frequencies - would this make more sense than absorbing panels?
I love the live sound I get & don't want to dampen it.
I think I have more problems in the bass which I'm hoping to address with tube traps, the mid and treble sound fine.
Just a thought at my early stage of treating my new small room. Have CARA & a RS spl coming - any input from Rives and that other fabulous man who answers everything - can't look up his name or I'll have to retype all this - own Echobusters I think.

Try some of these first. A new, more effective line is coming out soon. I have some prototypes and they are very effective. You need them anyway so you might as well start at the beginning.

Eighth Nerve doesn't believe in treating the first reflection points. Here is a review that is a little verbose but explains their position and the first generation of products.

The new line is based on the same principle but is more effective.
