I'm sorry, but I couldn't help but to remember this picture of Nordstrom's studio when yall were talking about room size...
Of course Norstrom is a legend, but this room is nowhere near 5x5m, or 10x10m for that matter, and he gets some of the greatest tones in all of Metal.
Just saying, for those of you who think you are doomed with small rooms. It comes down to how well you know how to actually mic a guitar cab up and make use of what you have.
This is the live room of one of his last studios and it's not the legendary Studio Fredman (actually IF Studios). On IF Studio there is an enormous live room and the "legendary" tone was done there (anyway in my opinion that sound becomes legendary because of the period and the genre, not for the quality).
In that room he recorded Dimmu Borgir "in sorte diaboli".
Actually he has another place with a bigger live room
