Aer,
Check out Steve Deckert's Optimal Dimensions for a Listening Room whose measurements came from the Masters Handbook on Acoustics. Shadorne's equation is Option C (the option I am planning to use when I remodel). Also look at Steve's other papers on room treatment while you are there. It always helps when someone has already gone through the motions and relays their experiences.
Also do a forum search on "room treatment". There is plenty of information available. Stick with the research (you can glean fact from fiction) and you will have a better chance of getting it close to right the first time. IME
