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.

@mihorn.  I am not sure your point about natural sound in the video. Sometimes my wife and my daughter try to talk to me at the same time and I have difficulty understanding them. Is one of them NOT a natural sound? 

     Exactly. We can enjoy many natural sounds at same time without much effort. Ex. Women chat with friends and enjoy the live music in the live band cafe. However, to listen the un-natural sound (like the left speaker in the comparison video), we must change something in our body (ears, eyes, and brain). Each time we hear un-natural sound to natural sound, vice versa, we must change the hearing mode. And it’s hard for brain and bad for health.

     My system is natural sound and I am always in natural sound mode. And I don't like listen un-natural sound system like before. I can still change to un-natural sound mode, but I don’t like do it because it is very uncomfortable action (like spit my eyes out and widen my eyes to suck into between 2 speakers). It’s called the immersive sound. I must listen un-natural sounds some times but I feel like un-natural sound sucks out my life.  Alex/Wavetouch

“Could you please list where you see the incompatibilities?”

My experience is My Experience. The List includes (but is not limited to) HT and HiFi “things” I have learned to no longer waste time, effort and/or resources on…

Low efficiency speakers, low impedance speakers, subwoofers, encode/decode protocols, extraneous wiring, room reflection issues (proper room treatment is of Primary Importance), screen reflection, multi speaker radiation interaction, digital glare, inadequate digital “sound processing “… I could go on but to what point?

My experience had lead me to organize my audio systems thusly…I have my HT system in the living room (where it belongs) and the 2 channel in a dedicated room (where it belongs). High efficiency, Large Full Range speakers, custom electronics (almost exclusively hand assembled), science guided room treatments and as few wires and connections as possible.

@mihorn. I think something is getting lost in translation. Please read my response again. I said I have DIFFICULTY understanding them and you said: exactly. For the record, you are proposing a solution for a problem that I don’t have. My system sounds very natural. Thanks.
