Is there a pill for that too? Seriously, it would be very interesting to hear what solution you come up with because I have converted from listening music solo to a small number of audience (friends). So much that I listen by myself much less often. I believe is not possible to make the sweet spot bigger but it is possible to adjust the room acoustics with new surfaces (walls or curved panels), objects, sound absorption and diffusion to make the room sound more balanced and sweet spot be "diffused". 

With directionality of horns it would be interesting to see what approach you use for this and how you treat room surfaces in relation to speaker and listening area location. One may say that there is no point to describe one room and use this as a guide for others, but with horns I believe it is not the case. If we have similar goals (diffusion of sweet spot in room) then certain techniques will take us in similar direction when comes to unfocusing the sound energy.

p.s. kids proofing is not just moving amps "away", believe me I have one year old son. they will pull cables, remove tubes when they cool down, push speakers, and play with turntables. Romy, do not worry about this stage yet because if you do... Trust me, do not worry about this yet.
