how do you trear rooms to bring up the null points


I understand absorbing or equalizing out low frequency standing waves that are reinforced by room dimensions; but how do you bring up the sound at frequencies being attenuated or canceled out? Are there decent looking panels designed to emphasize and reflect particular frequencies? Isn't this potentially more affected by the specific listening position? This would seem like a much tougher problem than absorbing specific frequencies.

OTOH, they are rarely needed as broad-band bass traps placed at boundaries (in the pressure zone) are cheaper and can be effective.

I agree completely - broadband traps is the best way to go unless you are an acoustic expert. The nice thing about broadband traps is that they cannot do much harm - in most cases they are beneficial - whereas a tuned trap can cause problems if it is not tuned and placed properly.
