I'm wondering if people saying they don't need DRC have full range loudspeakers, perfect rooms/studio's or ever even measured the bass response/RT60's of their rooms! If not: careful, the truth could hurt!
I myself did treat my room with a full surface acoustical ceiling, RPG Modex bass trap, very heavy rug, but would need massive amounts/volumes of absorbing basstraps or RPG Modex like resonant panels to tame the RT60 of (sub)bass. DSP/DRC combined together with room treatments is, at least to me, the best/most effective solution.
