While I can't solve your apparent problem of room size and speaker placement, I can offer one suggestion that will somewhat "tame" the output of the rear bass port. Years ago, I tried the following "tweaker's" suggestion, and found that it worked ... 
Who are the Jazz Cats on Audiogon?
My humble thanks to the several people who mentioned my name in connection with this thread. Perhaps those of us who love jazz should establish a separate forum within this forum?For those who have analog front ends in their systems, I want to men... 
5.1 pre/pro best around 700.00
If you are going to be using the pre/pro mainly for home theater, you should consider the Adcom GTP-760. This unit has been superceded by the Adcom GTP-860, so used 760's can now be purchased for around $800. The GTP-760 got an excellent review se... 
Is 3 CH with a HT pre/pro better than 2 Channel
Yyz:I think your 3-channel idea will work fine, given the size of your room. You may miss some of the special effects surround stuff, but there are times I think that aspect of HT is quite over-rated.The sole suggestion I can offer is to get a bet...

Money no object,,,,which speakers would you own???
Vandersteen Model 5A's for me... 
Speakers you regret selling
I'd enjoy having my Acoustat Model 2's back again, provided I had a dedicated listening room for them. They had an incredibly small "sweet spot", no deep bass, and were inefficient as hell, but for a solo listener with the right amp, they could be...

Adcom Preamps 565 & 710- Any difference?
The Adcom GFP-565 was (is) an excellent preamp -- infact, one of the best that Adcom ever made. The 565 got a number of excellent to rave reviews at the time it appeared. Among its best features was a fine phono preamp section. Other Adcom owners ... 
Manley vs Wolcott for Innersound Eros
Hi:One of our A-gon "regulars", Albert Porter (aka "albertporter) uses Wolcott amps with his Sound Labs electrostatic speakers. I don't know if Albert has made a direct comparison between his Wolcotts and the Manley 250, but I'm sure he could give...
