16 feet is a little large... eight feet is probably enough. You should be
able to do the math to see the relative importance of the various modes.
I should be able to do the math, but I'm afraid I don't know what math it is
I need to do. I don't know what the underlying physics is for the importance
of the modes. Is there a text I can read to set me straight?
The F. Alton Everest book on small studio acoustics is good, but the
math is also in the big Master Handbook of Acoustics.
There are also a bunch of room mode calculators out on the web. Here is one:

I haven't tried this one, but it's not all that hard to do with a desk
calculator so a java applet should be easy to do...
