Update.

I went home early, ie: before the rest of the fam, and moved my speakers / listening positions in places that I could never leave it that way, but I wanted to know.

Sound did not improve..BUT.. when I put everything back to the " way it was" my speakers were a bit further from the back wall and it sounded better, more bass.. So I played with that for about an hour and I got them in a position where they produce a very good amount of bass..the overall sound is not perfect, but more bass traps / treatments should take care of that..Point being that moving my mains further away from the wall(s) did produce a much better bass response, very acceptable indeed.. So, I guess I don't need to build a raised floor afterall .

The middle of the transducers are 26 inches from the side walls and 46 inches from the back wall.

I think I am starting to actually see the sound waves paterns of my room in my mind !!!!very scary.

Thanks Guys for all the helpfull advice and sugestions.
