Speakers or room

I have a very lively room. Tile floors, large window and open area. If you clap there is a loud echo. Furniture is limited. I set up Kef LS50w and the sound is recessed not forward. The room is 26 x13 and even up close it doesn't sound good. Is it the room? What should I do ? Wife acceptance factor comes into play.

of course they dont sound good. What do you expect? They are cheap small monitors for general purpose listening not high quality sound.

if you want better sound you will need a new room I'm afraid.

Have you tried putting in four or five large leafy plastic plants?  Scatter a few of them around the room, particularly along the wall behind and between the speakers.  The leaves act as small diffusers.  Works well for me.  And it's 1/10th the price of audio diffusers and sound absorption accessories.
