I used a primitive PC digital RTA and EQ and an analog passive EQ. Both were useful in correcting for room modes. The digital one was obviously jittery and grainy in the worst way the White Instruments studio EQ was very transparent but somewhat thin sounding and softened the deep bass no matter what the EQ setting. Definitely helped in clarifying the bass, but finding better positioning made the difference too small to justify the sonic costs.
It is helpful to have the room correction and then use the sound of the corrected EQ to guide you in treating the room and in positioning the speakers. Only if you have intransigent room issues would the EQ be useful as a permanent part of your system.
