Acoustical Voodoo

I hope I will not be banned for the words I'm going to say    hence it is 180° the experience of the thread owner...

Is there anyone with me?

Ban him! ..... just kidding  

Actually, I am with you and had anticipated some type of a response from a "purist" point of view.

Completely agree that the best approach would be to fix the room and not the signal, but for me that is not an option.

Our living room = my listening space, and the first lady (who has put up with me for over 30 years) has certain tolerance limits when it comes to optimal speaker placement, acoustic panels, etc.

So I guess I am trying to make the best out of the situation, but of course,  recognizing the fact that there is no such thing as an electronic sound absorber.
