Flat Screen Television behind speakers

I have a large 75” flat screen TV in my living room and want to know how bad this can affect the sound. The speakers have to go right against wall pretty much and the TV is in between the speakers. I have large acoustic panels right behind the speakers  and then 2 subs on the outside of each speaker which also have acoustic panels behind them. Question is should I move the speakers to the outside further away from the the TV and swap the subs inward closer to the TV- or would the bass reflection from the subs be even worse? The television is mounted higher on the wall so maybe the subs are better positioned on the floor?

Due to apartment life, my TV resides between my speakers and it does mess with the sound. Try throwing a wool blanket over the TV and you'll hear for yourself how much better your system will sound. 

Not all of us can eliminate the TV but, for me, mounting the TV on the wall moved it back enough to have a sizable improvement on the sound. I wouldn't fret over it if I were you.

All the best,
