If you are worried aboutt he comb filtering in the bass due to the dipole action of the Maggie, the best place fro a bass trap is almost directly behind the Maggie.ALso, please note that the pipe insualtion traps are not the most optimal method of creating a bass trap, they do provide some absorption, just not as much as other methods.
See:
The problems with steam pipe insulation for bass traps:

AND
http://www.AudioAsylum.com/audio/tweaks/messages/3771.htmlbdiament addressed one of the isses by using plywood end caps, but the rest of the issues remain.
Be aware that there are cheaper and easier alternatives, see:

and petew's post where he goes into detail on what he did.
http://www.AudioAsylum.com/audio/general/messages/70817.htmlIf you desire to use the traps as a support, a simple wire cage or wooden frame can be built to hold in the fiberglass rolls, and to provide the plant stand you wish.
