Lyngdorf RP-1 Room Correction Device, opinions pls

I am trying to find a room correction device that is user friendly, stand alone device connected via my tape loop out of my preamp, makes it easily defeatable.
I owned the Tact unit before and I really tried to understand operating it, but was beyond my ability.
So I am hoping to find something less complicated and does not cut into my listen time.
It appears to me that Lyngdorf RP-1 may be what I am looking for but there seems to be no local support except for a few dealers. I looked at the PARC unit, but again not sure.
I am kindly asking owners of the RP-1 what difference likely to be made, does it introduce considerable noise or loss of dynamics, artifical sounding etc.
What I mean is by fixing one problem and creating ten more.
Recommendations of similar devices is welcomed.
Thank you

I use a dbx Drive Rack PA as a crossover and EQ. It also contains a real time analyzer with room correction. I'm not certain it does what you want but you can get it from Amazon for about $400 with another $90 for the dbx matching mic. After that, all you need is a microphone cable long enough to run from the Drive Rack to your listening position. Also good to have a mic stand.

Check around as to how it suits your goals before buying but I think you will find pro gear is very good even if HP doesn't recommend it.
