Conventional wisdom for sound panels: sit in the listening location, have a helper move a mirror along the wall and mark everywhere you can see a reflection of a speaker from your location. These are the prime areas for sound diffusion panels, on first order reflections. Other than that, bass traps in the corners come recommended, but there are more knowledgable folks around here who can speak to them.

See some older threads on them, here and here and here.
