Widening Soundstage

Question for the Audiophile Experts

How do I go about widening my soundstage without moving my speakers further apart
I like the imaging i'm getting but want a bit more air in the music
Any ideas how to proceed
Check out my systems page for details on positioning and equipment

Ok
The speakers have been re positoned
For critical listening a thick blanket covers the television

Have a look at the revised pictures and let me know if you would do anything differently
The rooom positioning needs to stay as due to WAF

It looks pretty good to me as best I can tell from the pics.

Does it sound better now?

Pat- Looking at your pix, it seems to me that you are listening near field, where, I would guess (I'm no psycho-acoustician) that soundstage width would inevitably suffer when compared to imaging. It is just a guess and I am glad that you are getting more of what you want.
