Standing vs. Seated-Big Difference in Bass???

I own some Soliloquy 6.3's. The speakers are approx 7 ft apart and sitting area approx 8-9 ft. back. When I stand the bass is perfect. When I sit (same distance)the bass seems to be reduced approx 50-60%. Can someone tell me what is going on? I can do no better than getting 18 inches from back wall, large room 20x22 with semi vaulted ceiling. I have not installed the spikes. Using AR Vs110 (100 watt tube) amp. HELP

When you stand up you listen to a reflected bass.
You'll definitely need to either kill the reflections with room treatments or tweak the speaker placement closer or appart from rear/side walls.

Too big or too small?
