I had good results using absorbers placed inside of and slightly behind the speakers - between the speakers and the TV. These absorbed some of the sound coming off the sides of the speaker before it could hit the TV screen directly. I perceived better soundstage depth and could still watch tv with the treatment in place.
Flat screen between speakers, again.
I know this has been discussed before, but after reading most of the somewhat recent responses to similar questions I still need to pick your collective brains.
To mitigate the TV's impact, I am considering building a panel that would cover the TV when it's not in use. The panel would be a 2.5' x 4.5' diffuser or absorber. Ideally it will hang above the TV when I am watching TV and would lower down to block the TV when I am listening to music.
My question is whether this is a viable solution and, if it is, would I be better served with diffusion or absorption?
