Put in some correctly placed acoustic panels at the first reflection points, and that shrillness you're hearing will pretty much be replaced by expanded, more realistic, sound imaging. Really.

Yeah, I need to do that. I just need to find a way to slip some in without the wife going crazy. She had a coniption when I put 2 bass traps in and I still want to add 2-4 more. Its all about little changes over time.

We continually tell people over and over and over again that the Radio Shack meter is not suitable for full range measurements.... (in fact, both myself and Ethan Winer informed you of that when you asked the same question in the Home Audio Acoustics section )

Sonnie and I didn't even consider trying to provide calibration data for Radio Shack meters above subwoofer range. They simply aren't consistent or accurate enough.

Yeah, i wish i would've gone with a behringer mic from the start. But I just started out with the RS meter to level match speakers, then it moved up to measuring the sub for placement, then eq-ing the sub, now I'm wanting to measure the mains also. This hobby is like a weed that continues to grow on you untill it consumes you and your $. Thank goodness for great sites like this and especially the great people here that contribute and help others.
Thanks
