Dirac and room correction software

firstly , walk around your sitting position and see where bass is best , it could be that you are sitting in some null..and Dirac will not appreciably boost nulls.. it cant as a destructive null will just get deeper the more power you pour in.. best to move the listening position to get out of the null than moving speakers ..
You can place speakers nearer a wall too , to get boundary reinforcement

It requires some fiddling to get it right..the most common comment re low bass DRC is "where has my bass gone" .. you have to aclimate to what is "proper" bass...
if you want more of a "club" feel, What you can do is raise the 90-100 hz regioin by 2 db  .. give it a bump and do the same at 60hz
Measurements with DIRAC are critical , especially the first one.
Bass is really only realistic if you have big woofers .. so if you do want extra , a sub or 2 might be the answer
I would go for a SVS sb2000 .. not hugely expensive and dirac will integrate it

Bass seems fairly even to be honest. It's not a huge room and I sit relatively near the speakers with a lot of space behind me, but most places it sounds pretty much the same with bass and volume falling away a bit at the back.

I've been humping up the bass, I need to experiment more to get which bit I really need without throwing out the other aspects. I real-time EQ would definitely be useful here - even if it were just for tuning purposes.

I may look at subs but.....

Ok so my question is, if the bass seems to be there with measurements - a lot of my bass is being lowered by default with Dirac - how can it not be bassy enough? What I mean is, is there more to it than measurement - is it sound pressure or whatever that makes a difference or would lower sound pressure simply appear in a graph as less bass? I have to hump the bass up quite a bit above the default to even remotely get a good electronic beat.

That's why I started thinking if my speakers are measuring ok, especially after Dirac, but still not thumping enough - then maybe audiophile bass is 'wrong' in the sense that it sounds different to pretty much every average persons hifi, club, live gig, or whatever that I've heard throughout my life and in yoof particularly? Maybe most sound systems aren't 'proper' representations, so in a sense the norm is to be wrong?

My system is sounding the best it's sounded, and I think with a bit more tinkering it could be even better, but I sometimes wonder whether I've gone 'too hifi' and that things are a lot easier to sound 'right' on simpler systems perhaps. It dawned on me recently that I don't remember having so many thoughts about it before I started getting into high-end gear......
