Foam bass traps and diffusor panels

Hi! Is foam bass traps can be a substitution for a "proper" tube bass traps (ASC, or similar)?. The same question is for the foam diffusor/absorbtion panels vs. fiberglass-filled panels (ASC-type).
I have pretty bad booming bass problem in my basement, which is 23x15x8. Changing front speakers placement helped significantly in reducing the bass problem, but still.
Appreciate your responses in advance. Regards.

I like Auralex (look at Auralex.com) better than tube traps. Tube traps are like a turntable, you never know when you have the things exactly right in the room or what position and degree of rotation. I have had great results with Room Lens also. Auralex makes some excellent diffusor systems also.
See my pictures on my system.
