Good evening...

I am in the process of building my house, so I have a ton of flexibilty in the dimensions of my home theater room right now.

What is the perfect ratio for the rectangular room I should build to minimize the amount of problems I will have from standing waves, peaks and nulls, etc, etc...

My proposed room (to the wife) is about 15x24 feet.
I hope to do a front projection set up with a wet bar in the back...

Any thoughts?
