I need to do this, please help

I have put this off long enough, I need to do some room treatment, and it is the only part of audio that I don't know much about. I know about tube traps, corner traps, echo-busters, etc....... But what I don't know is how to make it function the "right" way, i.e. where to put them in my room. I can't change the dimensions of my room, nor can I change it unusual set-up though I would like to optimize the performance of what I have and I think I should have done this a long time ago. Are there any books or websites that may be able to help? or do any of you folks know any tricks that everyone in this hobby but me already knows? Thanks a lot for any help

Thanks guys and don't give me a hard time about my quad 901's!!! I have two per channel, i.e. 2 left channel speakers and 2 right channel speakers. I lay one pair on the side and I put a thin layer of rhino sperm on the top side of the bottom one, and then place the second speaker perpendicular to that one-standing upright(everyone knows Rhino sperm is a great check that its the best isolation device!). Oh and Eric you have mail! thanks a million buddy!

I have created a drawing of my room, with some specifics, if anyone would be willing help please email me. I tried to post the picture here but computers aren't my bag, and I can't figure it out, though I am confident I can email the sketch-I think I missed my calling in life, I should design houses and such lol!

Again thanks in advance for any possible help,
