Sometimes I wish we had the resources to try some of this stuff. It would be interesting to have a room of the dimensions stated, and try the different techniques of reducing bass, primary reflections and flutter. See what actually works best, and what is total BS. In a large room, there are pretty well defined standards, but when you're dealing with a short room or a small (1200 cu ft or smaller) room, the techniques seem to get a little fuzzy. I did a lot of research for my room (1000 cu'), and it sounds really good at this point, but I had to put up 22 2x2 panels + 2 2x4 ceiling clouds @ 4" from the ceiling + floor to ceiling bass trapping in two corners and 4" units over the doors + (Oh no, don't say it ) an absorptive curtain over the big windows. I'm still considering a diffuser on the back wall to tame some 1200-3000Hz issues.
Semi-pro studio locally, has a drum room treated with nothing but diamond foam... ... and a 8x6' plate glass window behind the drums ... ...and they charge $125 an hour. Must be something to breaking all the rules..?
