The boominess is caused by the room interacting with the Phantoms and you appear to have a particularly difficult room. I was hoping that moving the speakers and/or changing the listening position could reduce this but it does not appear to be so. You can try moving the sideboard to test, but I doubt it will change things.
Ideally, you should be measuring the room with software such as REW and then add bass traps, which are big into the corners of the room. But bass traps are not usually acceptable in a shared room.
Maybe it is possible to reduce some the boominess with an equaliser by reducing the bass? Suggest asking Devialet whether you can get an early version of the DOS2 EQ and try it.
