Optimum size for music room?

I hope this is not a silly question, so here goes.........
I may have the opportuneaty to build a room purely for music at the bottom of my yard. Is there an optimum size I should be aiming for, or is bigger better when it comes to room size? My speakers are Oris 150's and are 30" wide, 26" deep and 5' high approx. Also what about the height of the room?. Suggestions thoughts would be very much appreciated fellow goners'.

Strangely enough, for concert halls, the 'fan' shape is not a very good for acoustics, but is good for putting more people in the hall and not be too far from the performers. The classic 'shoe-box' large enough to hold about 1500 people is best - especially if the sides are lined with balconies.

Home listening, of course calls for completely different parameters.
