It would be standard 8' ceilings.

I think that you are misunderstanding what I am talking about, maybe I didn't explain it well. There is only one room design. The room is 15'6" by 14'6" with a 3' extended bay cutout centered on the 15'6' wall. The bay cutout measures 9' by 4'8"(the 9' dimension is on the 15'6" wall). I want to know how bad this room design would be for acoustics.

Nick, the basic idea is that the three room dimensions shouldn't be equal to each other or even multiples of each other. So, here 8x16x16 wouldn't be good from that standpoint. Your question about how far off does it have to be(1', 2', etc.)so that the room modes don't pile up near the same frequencies can't be answered with any certainty; just farther is better.
