Dedicated Room

Hello all. Have a question or ten on a dedicated room for my 2 channel setup that may get built. My system consists of the following:

Legacy Audio Signature SE speakers

Coda 16 Amp

Coda 07x preamp

Holo May KTE Dac

Aurender N10 streamer

PS Audio PP 12 

Pretty much all Morrow cables and power cords 

The room is 20x9  with 9 ‘ ceiling  

My questions are:

Would you put the speakers on the 20’ wall? 
With new electrical wiring would you run a dedicated 220 and 20 amp?

Any thoughts on room treatments? 

Any other recommendations that I have not specifically asked about that you think of feel free to chime in. Basically, I can start from scratch. I do realize the room size is not ideal. I would prefer 20x12 but I doubt I can squeeze that in.

Thanks in advance.

What is limiting the width of the room??

As above.  The room is critical.  If you could get the room to 12 feet, then you would be in much better shape to place the speaker off the short wall.  Start with the Cardas placement rule:  speakers out one third into the room, listening chair at the two thirds mark.  Treat first reflection points and the back wall wall behind you with absorptive panels and use diffraction behind the speakers.  Fine tune from there.
