I wouldn't worry about the "squareness" of the room since most of the back wall is cut away and the side walls have windows on at least one side for much of their length. Glass tends to let the bass go through rather than bouncing it back.

Glass does make for nasty high frequency reflections, of course. Heavy drapes on the windows, right ? Open most of the time and drawn for HT and serious listening ?

You might want to consider mounting the QS8s on the back wall. My only concern with QS8s on the ceiling is that it's not clear how they should be oriented to give the same behavior as wall mounting.

My guess is that this is room is going to sound very good even without bass traps. What are you thinking about for floor and ceiling coverings ?

You're going to need a fair amount of subwoofage because the back wall opens into a much larger area but it sounds like you already have that covered.
