Large speakers plus EQ, what have you done?

Does building a custom room or optimizing the room with treatments count as EQ ing ?

I had some large Usher speakers for my large audio rooms then I moved to a new house with a 16’ audio rooms. I tried using dsp to tame the bass for 3 years. I got it where it was ok sounding but something was missing. I also had the super bass traps, asc corner tube traps, etc..

I ended up buying some new Revel speakers with multiple smaller woofers. Got rid of dsp, all super bass traps, and the pair of other traps, and I have all the bass that I want, as quiet or as loud as I want. I’m putting up all the speakers/traps up for sale. Size your speaker to the room without al the overhead you need to get something to big to sound good in a smaller room.

I use the Emerald Audio BOM (Bass Optimization Module) with my KEF 107 speakers and it works well. 

I don’t know of this qualifies as to your question or if I am off base here, but...I have the Legacy Focus XD’s which produce (to my ears) the best bass I have ever heard. To control it I purchased the Matching Wavelet II outboard crossover/DSP/Preamp and it made a massive improvement in the bass performance. The bass is not boomy, it is deep, defined and well textured-it gives me goosebumps. As I have made improvements to electronics and cabling it just keeps getting better in the bass. The Wavelet can be purchased and programed to mate to non Legacy speakers too. It works!
