Speaker placement is key too, I use the Dolby specs of L and R speaker 22 to 30 degrees angle from the MLP. If you can't move speakers wide enough you have to bring the MLP forward.
Kota I will look into the room treatment kit you speak of. With the right decorative panels it might pass. It will be interesting to see where Anthony will put them with the furniture in the room. Right behind my listening position is a window with a fairly heavy curtain so the ceiling and side walls are probably all that could be treated. I have known for a while that room treatments were necessary. The panels I have were an experiment that I thought helped to a degree. I suspect, like Riley, that the ceilings might not fly.
Good, as for the speaker positions Dolby recommends 22 to 30 degrees from the MLP, that means either move the speakers wider or bring your seat forward. This diagram is for home theater but the angles still apply for 2 channel:
