A rug is a good start.
Have a look at your speaker set up and where your ears are.
Set up your speakers a little closer to each other. You might think that will have a negative effect on sound stage but when you've hit the right spot the sound stage will actually open up. turn them out a bit.
Hang something on your side walls where the highs might be bouncing off (imagine a line from your tweeters to the wall and then your ears and you've found the spot.
Have a go at tilting your speakers or (easier) changing the hight of your ears.
What's behind your ears? Can the highs be bouncing off the wall behind you?
The best music is a female voice and trying to get the depth in that voice. You should be able to hear all the way down to the bottom of her lungs
Here's the most important thing; Don't give up. Your equipment has the capacity to sound great. You don't need to buy any more stuff. If it doesn't sound right, it's the room or the set up. Only if you believe in that you will find your way to great sound. Don't underestimate how much time is involved though. It can take days to get it right but it's worth it.
Good luck!
