Corner loading/left louder ?

Speakers set about 10-12 inches from wall, toed in to my position on the couch. 
Left speaker is close to an open area which has a staircase, hallway etc etc, right speaker is in a corner about 4.5 feet from corner,. When I sit at my couch position, the right side (corner of room) seems a bit louder. Is this corner loading?  Which the room makes one side sound louder than the other?
 I've tried numerous positions, putting pillows on flor and behind speaker, but right side still seems to be louder, more music from right side compared to left speaker. Help

I am about nine feet from the speakers,, I sit center of them. 
They are about 7-8 feet apart

I put three pillows on end to the right of the speaker, seems to help soak up a little of the bass/loudness.   Til the boss(wife) sees it, and forces me against my will to remove the pillows, but it sounds a lot better now.  

Thank you you for all your help!

The speakers have two ports in the back, which also came with foam port plugs, which speaker should I plug with the plugs? Or are the port plugs for something different ????

plug the right side (which has the louder sound??)
top or bottom port?

will this limit my loudness, making one speaker accept less power from the amp, possibly damaging it at loud volume??

Yes, but then I will know there's more juice going to the left to compensate, which will always be in my head, driving me bat sh*t

ill give it a try or just learn to live with it.   Thank you
