First, that is likely a room mode. Second, it is not likely to be affected by adjustments in speaker position because standing up changes your listening position, not the speakers'. There are only three logical solutions: (1) Some kind of physical room treatment which is likely to be bulky, (2) DSP room correction or (3) stay seated when listening.
