For a quick good time, blankets...

My mother made me a quilt wall hanging, beautiful piece of art. And I hung it behind my listening position, and it made a very positive improvement to the sound. A friend of mine has a tapestry that's been in his family for generations, behind and between the speakers, I haven't heard the room without it, but it does seem to be a well damped room. Looks a lot better than egg cartons stapled all over the room!

Exactly the kind of things I was thinking of. Maybe someday when I join the plutocracy  I'll be able to do that.

My TV has a swivel it can be tilted back while listening. I hung a curtain over a large LCD to block potential reflections, it also looks good kinda gave the room a sense of being in a cozy little cinema.

I did that when a rear wall was only about a foot behind my ears. Treating a back wall in such close proximity makes a huge positive difference. 

I have an upright piano 4' from my left speaker and nothing to the side of the right speaker for 20'. I cover the piano with an old tablecloth when I'm alone. It helps.
