Thanks to all for the kind comments! Anyone in the neighborhood is welcome to drop me a PM and have a listen.

Length: 612 cm = 20.07 ft
Width: 381 cm = 12.51 ft
Height: 212 cm = 6.96 ft

Acoustically, the height and width are sub-optimal -- but that's what's available -- and I've had rooms with worse dimensions. The acoustic treatments help reduce effects of the width. The controlled directivity of the speakers helps reduce effects of both the width and -- especially -- the low ceiling. Not seen in the photos are acoustic panels on the ceiling behind the listening position. Installing them made a small but positive difference in the room acoustics (specifically, smoothness in the treble), presumably by dampening any "splash" of sound bouncing around in the rear wall-ceiling area.

Well, now I've undoubtedly told you more than you needed to know!
