Thanks to Goofyfoot for the tip on Ginko.
I went through all the head-tilting and chair-tweaking too. I found that a bit of acoustic absorption on the strong side (left, for me too) and not very much on the weak side had a major effect, especially if your room is really live.
I had my speakers geometrically exact and what could be wrong? Well, when I swallowed my pride and moved my right speaker 1" closer to me, it was balanced the way I always expected.
I think my tinnitus is most obnoxious when the classical and big band music gets really loud. I'm now about 8' from my system. It's almost a "near-field" setup, but I'm able to get great sound by keeping it small, tweaked and well-cabled.
