You are probably fighting room modes.

Notice that your head is almost exactly in the middle of the room? You shouldn't have it there in a small room like this.

I calculate the side-to-side first mode at about 50Hz. Setting your speakers wider _may_ help this some. Front to back, you should have pretty good nulls at about 30 and 90 Hz. Moving closer to the window will help this.

Bottom line: move things around until its a bit better, naybe you can find an arangement you can live with. The bass traps will help, but in a small room, the center is a bad place for your head.
