So I'm having some reflection issues and I can't for the life of me figure out what's causing it. I'm assuming it's some sort of first reflection..

Any ideas?

Are you referring to the Reflection at about 10mS? That reflection had to travel about 10 feet.

Yeah, I see that one at 10, but arent't there are a group of reflections between 0 and 5 (what does it look like when you zoom in)?
I had similar reflection in the 2 - 3 ms range, and it ended up being the TV screen causing both the initial higher reflection and somehow causing spike at "further" point. Finally, I threw a blanket over the TV when I took measurements, and for me it improved the measurements at both time frames. Have no idea how the TV caused 2nd reflection spike, but .... These reflections work in mysterious ways. Only took a minute to measure. So, now I know what it is but I can't do anything about it if I want to watch the TV :)

This appears to be nearfield listening with a computer. If you toe the speakers out a little, you lose some top end, but you could adjust it with a shelf filter using Equalizer APO.

Yeah, I'm referring to the 10 ms reflection, that seems to be causing a 100hz buildup in the rt60. Or maybe they're unrelated, idk. The left side seems unaffected by it and I'd love to even it out

I tried toeing them outward a bit. Measured about the same.

The front wall does not look symmetric to me... Window a bit to the left and some bare wall to the right? And maybe ~10 feet away? Just a guess... Use some EQ as @Sonnie suggests above... Looks like a studio of some sort... If you are mixing/mastering you might put the Room Correction EQ on FX Monitoring of your DAW...
