You might want to get a copy of "Premium Home Theater - Design & Construction" by Earl Geddes.
Though video topics are covered, most of the book is about optimizing the sound in a home listening room. The author is an expert in the fields of acoustics (in particular small room acoustics), psychoacoustics, and loudspeaker system design. Included are chapters on psychoacoustics, small room acoustics, noise control techniques, listening room design (you won't have to change you room's dimensions), and listening room construction. The emphasis is on cost-effective ways to put your efforts into things that really matter.
In my opinion, it's probably the best 40 bucks you can spend in audio.
