Room Correction


I have been having a tough time choosing speakers, a lot to do with a somewhat difficult room. Good size, but tight speaker placement within an area not allowing for a lot of space off back and side walls. Plus a lot of windows and hard surfaces (flooring, etc.)

I listen on a much more casual listening and not one specific sitting area within the room.

I listen to a lot of vinyl and streaming.

The idea of running analog through a digital room correction seems very strange to me, and does not sound appealing. Although I can be easily convinced otherwise if this is just a misconceived idea in my head. 

The speakers are in my main living room so a lot of significant treatments are really out of the question. 

What would you do to get the most out of your speakers in this setting?

What are some of the best room correction devices? treatments? items?

If budget gets limited after system purchase, what items will give me the most bang for my buck in the room?

Thanks so much!

When life and living in your room gets in the way of fanatical setup for your speakers, err on the side of life and living. : )
Well, setting up your speakers properly is certainly a lot less hassle than forever worrying about cables. It also makes a far bigger difference. As the guide Michelin would say: vaut le voyage.
Consider using omni speakers. Considering that you do not place emphasis on listening from a fixed location they might be perfect for you.
Analogue is by no means superior (that is an audiophile myth).

This statement is not correct at all all. Some people may not be able to hear it, but room correction systems will convert that analog to digital before doing DSP and corrections. Then convert back to analog. The end result may not be bad sounding, but you are definitely changing the sonic signature and you will lose the original character of the sound. At this point you are entirely dependent on the ADC and DAC circuits in the room correction device.

generally, a room correction system is used when you cannot properly treat the room acoustics by using panels or bass traps. Or if you have a digital source, such as a HT processor.
It is a myth. Just read up on the Nyquist Shannon theorem. If you can refute this, you are in line for a Nobel prize.
