Speakers that sound great in terrible rooms

@istvan1976

You are right, I've measured some of the same issues, and I wouldn't move without my speakers AND my acoustic supplies. :)

This audiophile's view was that speakers should be made for untreated living rooms or they should not be purchased. That the maker of the speaker should already have dealt with those "issues."

A speaker that sounds like it's in a treated room, perfectly positioned WITHOUT it being in a dedicated space with all the room tweaks would be the greatest invention since sliced bread.

I have to admit I've had a fascination with line sources all of my life. That and large ESL panels, and yet, I have ended up rather conventional.

KR at stereophile has been reviewing dsp based speakers. anthem arc, dirac, all the dsp software that measures and tunes the bass help., but the easiest solution thats free bepoletti said already, nearfield listening.

Here is a line array from ex-McIntosh speaker designer Roger Rusell I've wanted to hear.

I have to say I've heard current XRT speakers and really did not like them, but this is a much more simple implementation.
