'Handling with microphones'? What a bullshit!
Only lame excuses for a promissed(!) feature that is not going to come.

I do not think they ever promised room correction. There was a hint about SAM which some people interpreted as if room correction was going to be added.
I think it is entirely people jumping to false conclusions based on early discussions before any company policy had been decided.
FWIW I have experimented with a DSPeaker 2.0 and actually prefer the sound without. This -could- be because the unit re-samples all digital files from their native resolution to 48kHz before outputting them but I felt that the slight loss of transparency that I hear in mid and treble was too big a sacrifice for a more even bass, which I believe our brains compensate for pretty quickly anyway.
Don't get me wrong, I hate boomy bass, but room effects on sound are something which we subconsciously correct for all the time, after all there is no room correction on our piano or cello and they sound completely natural in here.
