Thank you.
I agree with you as those seem very sensible suggestions and I would very much like to put some of them in practice but with the exception of the heavy curtains my hands are stuck and I explain why: the projector.
It is fixed to the ceiling and there is no way I will move it again. Yes, some time ago I had a different disposition and also some other speakers. In that period my tv was obstructing the window and the sofa was in the middle facing the window, so I had the speakers along the shortest wall. Even then, with the kitchen opening and the door I had some audible asymmetries although I never took the trouble to measure anything. Going back to the projector, since I cannot (won't) move it, I'm forced to leave the tv and the speakers where they are, give or take a few cms, ten at most. Opposing the projector I have a screen also mounted on the ceiling that will cover the tv, so that's another no no for moving the rack.
Before I forget those cylinders are subwoofers, each weighting 110kg and unfortunately they don't have any positive effect on the acoustics I would add.
The desk I suppose I could put it against the wall if it wasn't too wide, provided of course that I removed first the furniture where I have the lamp but even if I threw it away still the desk wouldn't fit. Unfortunately I don't have any other place to dump some of the furniture and I really need it for storage purposes.
The 'second shelf' from the door that you mentioned is actually where I have a great part of my CD's and not only it weights about 270kg which makes it very hard to move but also cannot stay next to the door or this won't close.
I could however gain perhaps some 20cms if I put the chair on the other side of the desk, that is at the center of the room, but I doubt this would be any advantage.
Perhaps I could put some diffusor on the ceiling but it would have to be very shallow otherwise it would block the projector. How effective this would be remains the question...
