Still don't know which one is more effective....My room dimension is 3m(h) x 5m(l) x 3.2m(w)
spm_gl gave you the right answer, but I would not recommend starting out with them. Small rooms have problems throughout the frequency range so trying to build tuned traps for all the dips and nulls would be pretty darn hard. I would start with broad band bass trapping(as we have been talking about) and at the end if you have a few problem areas you can then build the tune traps to solve it.
Don't get me wrong I like tuned traps but it is not the ideal starting point for smaller rooms.
