A couple of quick comments:
- It's obviously a dedicted listening room since there's only the system and the chair in it, but overall the room looks a little bare to me. I'd like to see some more soft furnishings/books or something in there, partly to break up the space a little and partly because that would add a little more mid to HF absorption.
- the panels look a little high on the walls to me. I'd try to place the mid-point of the panel on the same height as the tweeters/ears. I accept that's a bit of a problem on the right wall with the power points but I think you'd get a bit more benefit from them if they were a bit lower on the walls. The lower panel on the left wall looks more like the right height to me.
- it looks like the panels are mounted flush to the wall. You'll get a bit more absorption if you can space them out from the wall around 2"-4" if possible. I don't know how you've got them mounted but if they're simply hanging, simply placing a spacer behind each corner may well do the trick. If you're prepared to stand mount the panels, you could lower their height and also bring them forward a bit from the wall in the one hit. That would mean that you could actually have the panels placed in front of the power points.
Hope there's something in there which helps.
