Flatscreen between speakers

Has anyone found a solution to cancel or at least improve the acoustic glare caused by a flatscreen tv on the wall behind the speakers? I don’t have a dedicated room and have to share the room with my home theater setup. I have thought of using an appropriate curtain and treat the tv as if it was a window. I am also considering light 3D printed panels that I can temporarily hung when listening to music and take down when watching TV with the wife. 
I tried hanging a couple of thick towels on it to see if there would be any improvement and the answer is yes. The center image is more solid and a little deeper. Nothing drastic but if I could squeeze anything positive, why not. Please let me know if you have confronted this issue in the past and whether you were able to solve it. Thanks.

I am planning to use a pull down TV wall mount that is built to allow a TV mounted above a fireplace to be pulled out and down. 

Instead of mounting a TV on it, I would mount a diffuser slightly larger than my TV that would be above the TV when I am watching television and would swing down to cover the Tv when I I am listening to music.

My only concern is that the TV would be too far off the wall when is is the down position. to that end i am still looking for one that swings more "down" and less "out".

Had a look at your setup and your solution with hanging a panel on the TV seems to be a more practical (and less expensive) solution.

If I make it so it can either hang the panel on a French cleat situated above the TV when I am using the TV, or hang it on the TV itself when listening to music, then It should be the best of both worlds.
