Ethan . My wall is about 6ft away from the back of my speaker which puts my listening space at about 50% mark of the room. Should I build a wall behind my speakers which will put my speaker about 2-3 ft from the wall and my mix spot about 25-30% of the room?

Here is a pic...construction going on...ignore the mess.

No, you should move your stuff so your head ends up at the right place.
