And opening or "broken wall" behind you is fine and might actually be beneficial.

hi Stian, You would definitely be better of with your speakers pointing down the long dimension of that room. Right now you are sitting in a very skew position (no early reflection on your left side, very weird reflections from your right and very strong reflection from your rear wall, as it is very close to your mix spot)

Other than that, all standard room treatment rules applies. Create your RFZ, get rid of as much bass and room modes as you can.

Here is some suggestions on what to do in a small room that acts as both CR and TR. This room is not that simular too yours (being a regular, rectangular room), but you might get some ideas on how to proceed, and it might create some specific questions.

Stuck in a really small room.....HELP!!!!!!

+3. You definitely don't want to fire across the width if you can help it.

Thanks to all of you. This was the advice I was looking for.
For now I`ve been using small crappy computer speakers while waiting for new monitors, so I haven`t really had a chance to try how this facing would sound, but It would probably suck with the new monitors.
