The room shape depicted should be relatively easy to load, given that it is in fact rather large, volumetrically, so power to scale must be pre-supposed.
As it happens, my own listening room was a lot like this for 13 years. 2A3 SETs with 97 dB BassZillas sounded toward good, but they were overmatched by that room.
People who are supposed to know claim that parallel floor and ceiling are better than vaults, but I have found it's more often a matter of just staying with it until desired results are achieved.
This room actually looks like an attic, and if that's the case then it would be harder to hold LF than if the floor were a slab or could be shored up.
Re my previous post, neighbors living near the English Bunker should be grateful that the sound could be fairly easily contained rather than shaking the neighborhood during listening sessions.
But distance works great, too, when it is available.
