Covering a TV behind your speakers?


I just read on another site a guy asking what difference it would make covering his TV while playing music. His picture shows a decent system but it must be in the basement. It can't be more than 12' wide. No sound treatments to be seen. I'm going through a divorce and will have to move to a much smaller one person house. I've been lucky for 30 years having my expossed basement listening room, 20' x 24', naturally almost perfect as far as sound goes.  I have been reading here and other sites trying to learn about treatments. Never heard the TV thing before. A few people responded to the guy's post that they hang drapes over the TV. I would think since current TV screens are not glass but whatever they are made of now they wouldn't cause a problem. Looking forward hearing from the experts here.

Okay, after reading this article I gave the blanket over a 65" tv setting atop a stand behind the speaker a shot. I had a relatively thick blanket to use...and sure enough, there’s a much better soundstage than before. I didn’t believe it would make much of a difference, but it does. A hearty thank you to the AG crowd chiming in!
I too, have found benefits to putting a highly textured throw over my TV for serious listening. Free to try...
I also refuse to have a screen between my speakers.  I do use GIK diffusers and have 4 of them behind and between the speakers. Sound stage is incredible.

Occasionally I do watch TV off to the side as a visual background to music. 

Ideally I would like to have the screen between the speakers. 
I would do it if they made a screen with convex curvature.   
I use a heavy  Canadian Hudson Blanket over my 50 inch TV which is at a 90% degree angle to my  speaker and that makes a difference .
Also the stripes on it is easy on the eye.
I do it because  , living in a 850 sq ft one bedroom condo, I have no choice .
Typically improves depth of soundstage and if your speakers are 4ft from the back wall or closer,  hanging a drape on the entire wall helps.  Look hokey.  WAF could be a big problem
