LSiFX Wall Mounted...kinda boomy.

So I got these things installed and I love them, but I noticed that ever since I removed my RT12's as my surrounds, and plugged these in, the room has more boominess to it. Some people say taking them off of the walls will eliminate boominess, but I really want them mounted to the walls. Are there any tricks to dampen out this noise? Anybody install foam or anything behind the speaker/wall?

Thanks!

    Turn the XO point up a little. Also a mouse pad between the speaker and the wall may help.
    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben
