Can I put a 60" tv behind my Magnepan 3.7i speakers?

I'm having trouble thinking this through...my listening room has 3  sides with records 7 rows high... Concrete floor, but all  carpeted the speakers are 5' from the wall    Definitely not a lively room! I was thinking about putting a new 60 inch tv between and behind them...apparently the tv with base would be around 14" off the wall( I could bring the speakers out another 10" if 'necessary')
any guess how it might affect the sound and imaging etc???
THANKS!

I have a 65" TV behind my Magnepan 3.7i's, but it's almost 9' behind them.  It probably negatively affects the sound to some degree, but sometimes you have to compromise.

So I just threw a blanket over my TV to see if it made a difference and didn't really notice any change.

stick some over the tv and find out - if worth the trouble you can then wall mount them

I can't fit GiK diffusors in front of the TV on the stand, nor can I wall mount over 3/4 of the TV because it's partially in front of a window.  Do you know of any other really thin diffusors?

Yeah I'm wondering how much of a difference diffusors would make in place of my TV.  I already have four (two on each side) though.
