Experienced only: What have you done with room correction?

For somebody who does without even tone control, obviously automatic room correction is out of my league. Went with building a dedicated listening house instead.

I’ve heard TacT (now Lyngdorf) completely transform a couple big $$$ systems to the point where you wouldn’t wanna listen to the system without their RC.  Avoid it at your own risk.  The ONLY reason I didn’t incorporate it into my system until now is because I was writing equipment reviews and couldn’t use it because it wasn’t appropriate for reviewing purposes.  Now that I’m free I’ll be all in for adding some kinda RC.

@soix like a TDAI amp, or what?

people in apartments, or homes that are not easy to change things in, may only have limited passive options… and RC becomes the only viable option.

I avoid tone or EQ for my mains.   I use a Velodyne SMS  1 x over / EQ , that is the extent of my electronic room correction.    I barely use the sub but using the SMS -1 makes the low end just right 

 like a TDAI amp, or what?

@holmz Correct.  Back when I heard the TacT correction I was reviewing equipment so really couldn’t use it in my system, but now I’ll absolutely be looking to add some form of RC without a doubt because the benefits are amazing unless maybe you have the flexibility to turn your listening room into an adult romper room.   I now have a tube pre and a completely upgraded McCormack amp so not sure Lyngdorf has something for me (although if they did I’d buy it in a heartbeat if in budget) and I’ll definitely add some GIK room treatments, but I’m also fully intent on incorporating some form of RC in the near future.  Might be as simple as something like a DSpeaker Anti-Mode 2.0 or something, but it’s gonna happen because IME the results are more than worth it.  FWIW. 

I started with quitting trying to make a mid sized strange configured room work and moved the 2 channel system to a different larger room. Used calculators to determine how much acoustic treatment where to position, and where to best position speakers and sitting position. The treatement was for the time domain and positioning was for room nodes. I over compensated on room treatement and then removed treatment until it was just right. I used Room EQ Wizard for dialing in my active crossovers and use DSP for minor frequency correction.
