Experienced only: What have you done with room correction?


I like to sometimes ask questions just to learn how others have experienced a technology and this is one of those times.

I’m genuinely curious about who has applied automatic room correction, and what your experience was? Did it turn your Monitor Audios into Martin Logans? Your Martin Logans into Wilsons? 😀

Good and bad, but experienced only please!

For the record, I use it for HT now and I’m meh. I had much better luck with manually (with tools) adjusting my miniDSP.  Also, I'm absolutely not looking to buy anything, I just want to read about your experiences because it is fun.

You cant correct a room with DSP. I have tried and I can confirm it does not work. It comes back to the time domain response. You can correct tone using EQ but you cant fix ringing which is the real issue. So throw your mini DSP away as it wont work. 

Some of us want perfect sound by cutting corners and using room correction. You cant have it both ways. Perfect sound comes at a cost there is no free lunch you have been warned
