Tube traps can be very effective in the ceiling corners, and that's usually one place that's out of the way. I have one right in the center of the long wall behind my listening position at the wall/ceiling junction and it made a very nice difference. I'm sure if I could have put it in one of the corners it would have made a huge difference. Don't forget that you can also use tube traps on the ceiling between the listening position and speakers to arsorb one of the first reflection points (depending on your type of ceiling, of course).From a different approach, can you move the speakers at all from where they are? If so, you might be able to make the bass hump smaller in magnitude and/or slide it up in frequency so that it's easier to treat.
My last listening room was 12'x12', so I know your pain all too well.
Best of luck, and Happy Holidays!
