I know what you mean. I have (had) a challenging HT room with 21x 19 x 8 dimensions which is far from ideal. It took months of experimenting with treatments, bass traps, placement of sofas and chairs, bookshelves to tame it.

Really? Those dimensions would appear prima fascia to be good by virtue of not having any common factors.

Generally speaking as the room approaches square dimensions the problems mount...in my case huge room gain 25hz and below plus a couple of deep nodes. 19 x 21 isn't too far from 20 x 20.

I've read that the spl meters aren't accurate below, say, 45hz, so do you base that on measurements or on calculation?
