Best Ratios for a Newly Constructed Listening Room


Hey there all,

I have an open basement, above ground, and I'm looking to complete a suitable and dedicated listening room. Unfortunately my ceiling will be limited to almost exactly 7'3" in height by the time I install a floating ceiling. The widest I can make my listening room will be 14' and the depth (length) limited between 14' and 20'.

Any ideas on the best possible room dimensions?

Tens of millions of $$ are spent computing/engineering/constructing concert halls — and they're awful. They tried for 50 years to fix Lincoln Center, and it was never even close to Carnegie Hall (well, about 12 blocks). The best sounding room I ever had made no sense whatsoever — totally wacky.
