Too much bass with compact in corner

I played a gig where I had to have the Compact in a corner.( actually two large glass doors joining a low ~3'glass wall) The system sounded fine in the rest of the room,but my partner and I were getting too much bass.(I felt if I dialed down the bass in the T1 the room might not sound as good)
I ended up removing one extension to bring more high end to my ear.Lost a little in high dispersion to the room but customers and staff complemented the sound quality.(is it counter intuitive to use a small personal spot monitor for extra highs? I kept thinking it would be nice to have one of the Compact's small drivers serving this purpose!That would make a tiny solution!!)
Is there a logical way to reduce boominess if you have to set up in a corner?I thought maybe elevating the base of the unit would help,but haven't had the opportunity to try this out.
I know they make foam bass traps for studio corners(expensive!!)but not sure they would work as a portable on site solution.
I know other folks have had the same problem from reading the forum:
ANY IDEAS??
Thanks,Otis
