My room 12'x 9' with 8' ceilings will it sound OK?

Hello,
I am building a new house and have an extra room I don't know what to do with! The room dimensions are 12'x 9' with 8' ceilings. I was hoping I can make a listening room that will only be used for 2 channel SACD & CD listening. I am very worried with these small dimensions the sound will be totally wrong. I did not purchase any electronics for this room yet. I am currently into home theater more than 2 channel audio but always wanted a room for critically listening to my favorite music. I will have a dedicated home theater/family room also. If anyone has a room like mine please let me know how it sounds! Any information you give me is GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanx A. Lot
Eddie

IT can be done respectably with the right knowledge, care, planning, tweeking, and gear sellection, yes. It is not going to be easy for the novice in my experience. There should be some consideration for acoustic treatments, and perhaps a lot of consulting, if you're not so versed in small room acoustics and PROPER EXPERIENCED system set up proceedures/considerations!!!(most aren't!...don't kid yourself).
May I suggest you take "rives" up on his suggestion to poke around his site, or even his consulting services!
There's no replacement for competent professional knowledge, skill and experience when you want something done right!
Good luck
