This is a setup that almost asks to have the main speakers dangle from the ceiling. We had an old setup where the left speaker was partially blocked by a furniture piece just like this and when the furniture was removed, it made an audible difference.
I'm still stuck in this situation. I know it affects the sound, but there is nothing I can do about it. Say, maybe a VP160 is the ticket.
