EQ is not enough. I'd call it "the frosting on the cake".

We're dealing with the twin issues issues of sound pressure and sound velocity that are naturally tied to frequency-response/tonal balance. Also, there's the issues of extra expense and complexity introduced by a digital crossover to consider.

DSP or EQ can be a good thing. But the room must "feel" right as well as *sound right*. Sound velocity and sound pressure must be physically "tuned" in order for a room the feel right.

Proper speaker placement and physical or "hard" room treatments will therefore remain my first line of defense in combatting room and frequency reponse issues. DSP or EQ would remain "the frosting on the cake" for me - if I feel that it might be needed at all after my "first line of defense".
