RE: Room Dimension Questions

Are you stating that the adjacent bathroom and closet open into your proposed listening room? If so, you may have a good listening space.

Many years ago I lived in a dwelling that forced me to use a dedicated listening room having an 8-1/2' ceiling and a 13' x 13' floor plan. However, that room had a walk-in closet and a bathroom each of which had a 6' x 6' additional floor space.

I configured the speakers and listening position in a nearly equilateral triangular set up and left the doors open to each additional space. Speakers were out from a solid front wall about 4-1/2' and my listening position was between the two doorways about a 1-1/2' out from the rear wallof the room. The total valume of the combined spaces distributed and smoothed room nodes amd modes and rendered a decent listening experience with good soundstage. Adding a few acoustical treatments tamed HF reflections.

You may end up quite satisfied. Best wishes,

Ian
