Acoustic treatment


I need some advice on how to proceed with acoustic treatment in my listening room.  Setup is Wharfedale Jade 3, Cambridge CXA-81, Bluesound Node 2i, SVS sub.  Stands are damped with pea gravel and sit on needles on metal disks.  Speakers sit on dense foam isolation pads.  They are 30" from the front wall and 40" from the side wall.  Room is about 15x13x8.  On certain music (Hawaiian slack guitar, some soft piano jazz) I seem to get resonance around the bass/mid crossover at 350 hz, perhaps a little higher.  Otherwise I am very pleased with the sound.  I have acoustic panels on the front wall behind the speakers and two DIY tube traps that I've moved to various locations.  Here is my question:  assuming that the room is the problem, should I look in the direction of absorbtion (i.e., a resonator tuned to the 300-500hz range) or dispersion?  Thanks.

Here is my question: assuming that the room is the problem,
You are correct it is.

If you want a starting point go to a couple of sites where you can
input your room dimensions etc and get a calculated response.

If you chose to use a manufactured product or build it yourself
you can decide just how far you want to proceed.

Realizing the room is the starting place and everything thereafter
will be influenced by it will make your journey far more satisfying.
