Buggs1a...Not if you use it sparingly. Depending on the nature of your room, and provided you paint them
lining it behind each speaker as well as between the speakers and a section of wall behind your listening room, could have very positive results. It's when you cover the entire room that you will run into problems.
I am using a series of small wine racks made of wood, some even mounted on the wall to create required diffusion. It looks good as well. A friend placed 3 of these wine racks on the floor between his speakers (about 2 meters behind the speakers) and the improvement in the sound is jaw-dropping. The racks are about 60cm wide, 40cm high and 50cm deep. I use 7 in my room after a lot of experimentation.
