The guys are correct that you've got some notable room modes that require correction.

Part of the problem is that your room is almost square; such dimensions create more problems than a rectangular room.

You're going to require acoustical treatments to counter these problems. My suggestion would be to get several GIK Alpha 4A panels from GIK Acoustics and use them around the room both for diffusion and to function as bass frequency absorbers. That 40 Hz peak that Tom referenced is the top priority. I've been using the GIK panels for about a year now and they have made a significant improvement in the audio quality of my room.

There is a forum here for GIK Acoustic, so you'll find information there on how to contact them. They're great, the products are affordable and they are very helpful providing support and recommendations.
