Well it's more like 2.8m by 3..7m with a very high ceiling slope up towards the back. It's on a platform in the roof of the building. It is also only 31 speakers really, as the one below is under my chair, and is generally disconnected. Space is one reason why I want to change to smaller speakers. Along with improving their quality. I used a 3d graphics program to place all the speakers away from doors and windows, but still keeping the angles the same. (vertices and faces of a dodecahedron) They are all fastened to walls and ceiling. The distances from centre vary of course. In reality it works very well with no obstructions in the room unless you are very tall! :-) I will make some pictures available when the next upgrade is completed.
