Dedicated room suggestions

Hi all. I have an unfinished room that is 13x16.10. 
My system is a Cary Audio Tube amp, DMS650 streamer and DAC. And my very large Klipsch Cornwall IV speakers. 
I’m new to the game and looking for suggestions regarding layout and room treatments. Wondering if the speakers should go on the 13’ wall or the other way around. And any acoustic panels that can enhance sound, how many and where should they go?
Thanks in advance.

Earl Geddes is renowned for his subwoofer integration strategies and bass management. Thanks for posting @soix

Check page 236 on subwoofer setup, that is exactly how I did it (opposite corners) and you can see the bass response for my subs in the measurements in my profile, it worked great. Earl is the man!

Just had a thought- imagine if everything was as well recorded as Steely Dan or Marcus Miller- this would barely matter :)

I know that's not true but even under far from optimal conditions man do those recordings sound amazing.

@soix , thanks for posting that book, great resource. If it isn't too much trouble could you post your system with a few pics in the virtual system area? Would really enjoy checking it out. Thanks
