Any one else using DIRAC or silimalr for 2 channel set uo?


I finally got around to running some cat6e to my Arcam SR250 which enabled me to run Dirac room correction. I used a umik-1 and my laptop for measurements and I am very impressed. After about 3 weeks of listening I am very happy. I had some bass bloat in the lower end that Dirac cleaned up nicely. Just curious if anyone else is running any room correction on a stereo set up.

Very nice. I wasn't aware Roon had any room correction capabilities. I recently dipped a toe into streaming with a node 2I and a Benchmark DAC 2 HGC but prior to the Arcam was in the multichannel AVR camp. I have yet to dig deep into Roon as an option.

I have seen previous posts where you have made reference to building your own speakers in the past but have not ever seen a link to the final product. Your monitors look good. It appears our strengths are opposite as I'd be much more comfortable building the boxes and outsourcing the components and crossovers.
My system is dual purpose (tv and music) in our main family room so wife acceptance factor is important. So no bass traps or sound diffusers on the walls. DIRAC really improved things for me overall. I was pretty happy prior to running DIRAC but I have a tendency to favor a little extra bass in the low end. After running DIRAC the sub integrated much better and my wife stopped complaining about things being "so boomy".
