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.

This will be a challenge for me after we move so I’ve been thinking on it.  

Has anyone considered or actually done the following?  Make, or purchase, a light weight diffuser panel, large enough to “acoustically hide” the TV completely.  Hang it from the ceiling, so it’s flat on the ceiling when watching TV, where it’s out of the way and works to minimise ceiling reflections.  Lower it by some ingenious mechanism that hinges directly above the face of the TV, so it hangs right in front of the TV.  
I’ve not yet got a solution for the mechanism that is aesthetically acceptable and functions well, but I’m sure it’s possible.
