I believe Paul W. Klipsch once said that the speaker accounts for about 10% and the room about 90% of the sound of an audio system. (The numbers might be 80% room, 20% speaker, but you get the idea).
Before building any stands or sandboxes (either of which might help), I'd just move the speakers and your listening chair around to every place you can in the room. Disregard where you think the speakers have to go and just experiment! The goal is to discover whether the boominess can be cured by any placements of speakers or listening chair. If the speakers never sound good in any positions you can find, it may be time to look for different speakers. In my own experiments, moving speakers just a few inches can change the sound to a remarkable degree.
Good luck!
