Need HELP in Placement of Traps

[shadyru]

I have a pretty square room.

I have 2 4" bass traps (703) in 3 corners of the room covered with ready bags. Where the door is there is nothing. I have a few 2" adn 4" traps placed here and there on the walls but the floor is naked (hardwood) and the ceiling is naked and the back of the room is pretty much naked (as pictured)

Now when I was working in a different room much larger with the same amount of traps I would walk into the room and know right away that I was in a dead room. This on the other hand has echo and just a weird no warmth sound to the room.

My monitors are yamaha msp10 and yamaha ns10's

1. I need help in placement of traps and if I need anymore traps...I do have some leftover 703 would either just buy some more real traps bags or cover them with some cheap material.
2. How do I test my room?
3. Would those mopad things help under my monitors as well?

Bump its a terrible sounding room right now (even with the bass traps) and would like some ideas on how to relieve the echo in this room, make it more dead, and have a good place for a monitoring environment.
