I wouldn't worry about anything less than an indicated 4 db. A couple of ideas come to mind. First, the Thiels are tilted back, so the tweeter may generate some ceiling reflections. If there's a tasteful way to limit those, it might help. Other than that, keeping the speakers away from sidewalls or putting absorbent materials on sidewalls adjacent to the speaker might bring this down. You might also try adjusting toe-in.I assume you made these measurements at the listening position, equidistant from the speakers.
The problems you are complaining about are not room resonances. They are either the product of excess speaker radiation or excess reflection of certain frequencies back to the listening position. Looks like you have some room gain working in the bass, though.
