Default Help w/ placement of booth in studio?

My "studio" is in my house basement, and the room is 25'x17'.
Everything fits in here pretty nicely. I have a (Roland) drum set
in the middle of the room, desk and monitors at one long end of the
room (facing a 17' wall across the room), guitars off to one side,
outboard gear in a rack to the other.
I just bought a vocal booth, and it's 6'x4'. Where would be
the best placement for it in the room in terms of its presence
having the least impact on what I hear from the monitors. I don't
yet have bass traps in the 4 corners, that is coming next. I think
the mixes are actually going well down here. I've relied a lot on
Har Bal, and I must say, I've been happy with the results, all
things considered. I monitor at low volumes (~80 db).
Anyway, if I place the 6x4' booth in the back corner of the
room, running along the long wall, it significantly "shortens" the
distance from the monitor which faces it diagonally. I imagine
this placement is significant enough that it would likely make the
quicker reflections coming back from the one of the speakers
confuse me during the mixing.
Could I have some advice about the best placement for this
booth in a room this size? Thank you.
