So, my question is that if I angle the speaker up a few degrees (which I need to do anyway to make it hit hear height), and maybe put some 1/2'' feet on it, will that take care of any sound interference from the cabinet?
No it will not. You really should find a way to pull the speaker forward so that the drivers clear any cabinet or TV parts. You don't have to believe me; it's really easy to try for yourself. Try it both ways, see how much of a difference it makes to you. Maybe you can live with it reflecting off the cabinet work. I know I can't.
