Which Golden Ratio??? .......Help


I have seen a few different golden ratio's BUT I am not sure what is the right one to use.
I have seen the Olsen one - 1X 1.25 X 3.2
Boner - 1.00 X 1.26 X 1.59
Louden - 1.0 X 1.40 X 1.9
the other one - 1 X 1.6 X 2.33

Can anybody tell me what ratio to use before I screw up my project!! Also are cathedral ceilings bad for acoustics - I have a room that has 8' 9" high walls that go up to a 16 ft vaulted ceiling!! Should I build a dry-wall ceiling and cut off the top part of the peak/ cathedral??

Thanks for any HELP!!

Whoa, you must be single, right?
You have an interesting room, so even if you do not have a wife to smack you down on this issue, control the urge to turn your room into a boring cubicle!
Find your magic formulas and apply them, but they won't work in every room for every type of furnishing, etc. The important part will be sitting down, listening, then bouncing-up again to make small changes in the speaker positions many times until you have it right. Use pieces of tape on the floor/carpet so that you can see/measure the differences as you move the speakers.
