It's probably a combination of all these things. The A2s themselves are a little boomy already. Placing them in a not so ideal location makes it even worse. I was in the same situation as you, the A2s sounded too boomy and relocating them wasn't an option. I ended up sticking a small stripe of black (I have the A2s in black) rubber foam into the bass slits in the front. They sound now much less bass-heavy and they still look good!
