how does stop first reflections off a computer desk?

If you mean reflections to your ears - How about stands / raising them. Maybe with pads underneath. It will substantially diminish the sound that can be reflected, and increase the distance it has to travel to get to your ears. Without taking all the desk space.

Yep stands. You might also try wall mounting those speakers.

Eesh...
I always recommend acoustical treatments but in your case, you have far bigger problems. Placing speakers directly on a large, reflective table is not conducive to quality sound reproduction...if you care enough about the sound to buy acoustical products you need to change your whole listening environment. Placing a thin absorptive pad on the computer desk is not going to help very much.

I was suggesting that maybe you should abandon trying to make the speakers sound better because the setup presents far more issues than those you asked about in your original post. A new set of nice cans would probably be a better solution than the approach that it seemed you were taking above (i.e., acoustic treatments for the wall behind the speakers and reflections on the desk).

That room is still really "hard". There is almost nothing to absorb sound other than the traps and lots of very hard surfaces to reflect it - concrete, brick, glass and wood! You might want to soften the rest of the room up a bit with carpeting, drapes, wall coverings, acoustic damping material, whatever.
No disrespect meant. I think a lot of the posters are merely suggesting that you have some challenges ahead

I would maybe look into rearranging the room a bit so that the speakers can sit on stands, and then try to address any peaks once you've softened the room and some of the hard reflective surfaces (as one poster mentions above).
Fyi, I bought quite a few of the coffee bag covered panels from ATS Acoustics in December. They really helped soften my walls (and add an interesting aesthetic touch).
