try aiming the speaker more towards your listening position, toeing them in a bit. I like to use a laser level to aim my speakers to insure that they are symmetrically set up. and use a piece of cardboard behind the listening position to have a target.

Use a piece of painters masking tape and place against the side of the speaker, Inboard is OK, square to the front face and midway between the tweeter and the midrange driver. IF you can set your level on top of that tape edge aim the the speaker so that it is directly pointing towards your ears. You can do this by adjusting the tilt as I am pretty sure your speakers have spikes.

Also try to move your speaker a couple inches forward. I like to arrange the speaker so that when toed in and set up, the plane running across the front baffle is a bit ahead of any obstruction in the middle, especially if you have something as reflective as your flat screen.
