Generally "foam" won't help with domestic rooms (apart from some
exceptional circumstances). Take a look at something like this:

If you have lots of glass areas in your den, You can try and tame them
with "foam"...but it may not work.
Try moving stuff first
For example, a glass-topped coffee table between you and the speakers
is a bad idea - unless it is covered in books.
Bookshelves (with books on them!) make good diffusers.
Carpets/rugs are good on wooden or tiled floors.
Lined curtains in front of windows (especially full lenght windows or
glass doors) are good.

One thing worth doing is checking for things that rattle along with the
music (eg ornaments) - you won't normally hear them unless you use a
swept tone (get a copy of Soundcheck or similar). You might be
surprised by what's rockin' along with your music!

You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it
ain't what you'd call minimal...

very expensive cables ;o)
