Thanks for the detailed response Richard. I am in the engineering field and do know that analysis does not always pan out. The corner arrangement and the very complicated shape of the walls/ceiling that I did not totally explain reak havok with calculations. I do know a good room from a bad one though. Aside from the bass peaks, voices sound good, I hear no brightness, the bass in not boomy, just amplified. I think the room is saveable. From my cursory knowledge, the room sounds like a good candidate for EQ, no? My thinking is a high quality decent Q multiple notch filter unit would get me pretty close. No? But it of course needs to be transparent, is that possible? And perhaps I could get lucky with the tact and improve some higher freq anomolies?? I do understand the problems/limitations of EQ'g. I already spent the big bucks before I knew the room was an issue. My problem is the dearth of test reports/first hand knowledge of the current EQ products, even though "room correction" is a hot HT topic lately. I'm looking for those who may have first hand experience with the tact/parc/meridian who can tell me how they really perform. Thanks again.
