In Reply to: Yep - what kind of problems should I expect with my new room? posted by VynylTap on January 14, 2009 at 17:13:15:
There may be nothing wrong with 11'w x 16'l x 9'h but if you were able to use the magic Fibonacci ratio (1 : 1.618 : 2.618), you couldn't get much better than this as a basic room.
Re. the ceiling ... IMO the vaulted ceiling you are thinking of will deliver better sound than a flat 9' ceiling and if you can go to a peaked ceiling /\, that will sound even better (that's what I designed my "listening room" with, 22 years ago).
If you send me a PM with your email address, I'll send you an Excel s/sheet which originally came out of THX, which gives you graphical feedback in terms of the room nodes intrinsic to the selected dimensions. Then you can experiment.
