Is Owens-Corning 705 the best absorber on the planet or...

...are there other materials that work better or equally as well. For example could I shred some t-shirts and paper, maybe wood chips, make a bag for it and use that as a bass absorber? I'm looking for something to put in an unused corner in my home studio, behind my DAW to control the bass in the room. It doesn't have to be pretty...
Unfortunately my set-up is such that I face into a corner with an "L" shaped desk, so the speakers are on the legs of the "L" and I face directly into the corner. My room is 12 feet long, 10 feet wide and 8 feet tall. Those measurements are to the closest inch. There is a clothes closet with sliding doors in the opposite corner along the long wall. I have a futon next to that in the back, which I think helps tame the room, but I need more basss control.
I'm in Colorado Springs, CO if that helps. I can't find Owens-Corning 705 anywhere here
Please be gentle... I did a bunch of reading and didn't find the answer to this question...
