Solution for TV between speakers?


Like many of you my sound system is in the living room out of necessity. The speakers are well out in the room and the audio rack is set outside the speakers. Unfortunately, there is no place to put the 27" TV except between the speakers. Experimentation has shown next to the wall is the best spot. The stand is a C-stand which has a 5-legged base with a question mark shaped vertical post on which a shelf for the TV is attached. It was selected for its minimal mass and "art deco" look. Being at the point of tuning the room an idea occured to me and I'm curious if anyone else has tried it. The idea is to make a cloth "tube" lined with Sonex that would be wrapped around the TV and stand. This would make a floor length column ~4' high that would hopefully not only deaden any reverberations and reflections from the TV and stand, but also serve as a front wall treatment. Kind of like an oversized tube trap. Ideally it would open flat so it could be hung on the wall when the TV is in use. That way it would serve the secondary purpose of deadening the wall for HT (about 10% of the time). Anyone tried anything like this? Comments?

I have similar situation. It helped to pull the speakers as far as possible forward into the room and to move a far apart as you can while maintaining good imaging. I also bought a Tact RCS 2.0 room correction processor and that made a significant improvement in terms of better imaging and articulation of the sound.
Albertporter's idea of casters could easily be made to work (here's a picture of the TV stand: http://www.smarthome.com/8700.html). room Just have to find an office chair to sacrifice. Did try moving the TV out of the way, even out of the room entirely. Covering it with a blanket provided similar results, but there is no acoustic treatment on the front wall, so it wasn't a real test. The speakers are over 4' out in the room and 6' apart. The TV is right up against the front wall. I'm still curious what effect "the big tube" would have on the sound. It would easily be 8' in diameter and 4' tall with Sonex all the way around and on top. If no one has tried this with disasterous results I'll give it a go and report back.
