Hi,
I'm into hifi for more than two decades now and have to say that the room interaction is undeastimated way to often!
I heard mid price (5 - 10k) systems sounding amazing and highest end ones (> 100k) sounding, well, let's say way below their possibilities. Audio shows are often enough a good (means bad) example.
Room treatment with reasonably placed absorbers/ diffusors will bring the best results but also simple stuff like rugs, cushions in corners to defeat echoes, furniture, plants, etc. can make huge differences - in either direction as Womaz just brought up...
