Any commetns on my oddly shaped room?

Here's what my new studio room looks like.



I think I'll position my speakers so I'm facing the long (3,3mtr) side of the room but in line with the windows for simetry reasons.

Any comments?

That's a strange room all right. I'd set up to face the top of the drawing, so the room gets wider toward the rear.

Nothing to add, but do you have any pictures of this room? I got to see this.

That's the previous owner standing there...

O and about those thick stone walls...only the right wall is from solid stone, the left wall is thin gipsum.
I hummed some low note's in there for a while and so far there does not seem to be much standing waves at all, just a few which are caused by the floor/ceiling I guess.

I'll bring in lot's of home made wrapped up rockwool plates to form a suspended ceiling.
