Room correction room system vs ears….

So, I splashed out and spent more than I wanted to on a nice little Benchmark amp and preamp etc and since I’ve gone that far I got curious about a room correction system for this and it’s going to cost me over a grand apparently. As far as I can gather these dial in the music before it comes out of the speakers…?

 

im wondering if I simply messed around and found the sweet spot without a room correction system how much of a difference this would make. I’m far from savvy with audio and try to keep things simple for my simple brain, so, on a scale of 1-10 how much difference would I percieve by splashing out on a room correction system?

I'm constantly amazed by before and after demonstrations at audio shows. I've since made it a point to always follow those demonstrations with a visit to an LP source analog demo where my shoulders never fail to drop and relax. Eyes rolling?

On the other hand it was suggested to use an Altec equalizer with my Octavium sub while dodging the draft and have been equalizing and optimizing subs ever since.
