I'd stack two of the 24" x 48" traps on top of each other to cover the entire corner floor to ceiling.

I wouldn't bother with a MicroTrap across a corner as you show in your drawing. Corners are good! But for that placement you'd get better results with a MiniTrap.

So my best advice is to get one HF style MiniTrap plus two or three MicroTraps. The HF MiniTrap will be mounted straddling the corner, and placed vertically so the top is one foot above your head. Then one or two MicroTraps will go flat on the walls adjacent in the corner at the same height. When you call to place your order I'll be glad to make you a custom drawing if you remind me.

Yes.

That looks good. Really, you need both high and low frequency absorption, not just one or the other.

so this configeration only gives me low absorbtion? what do i need for high?..i figured this would take care of both

No, I said it looks good.
