I received the anechoic measurements of the KEFs directly from the manufacturer as a starting point. But as soon as the speakers are placed in my room, they will immediately have a different response because of my room acoustics, placement, etc. and this has nothing to do with electronics.Room correction software won’t change the sonic signature. It will actually restore the sonic signature of your speakers because it reduces room effects by applying filters. You can of course slightly adjust the frequency target response in Dirac but you don’t have to.
It's very hard to make the decision (to pick the right components of a new setup) without being influenced by subjective opinions, and that is why I am asking:
can Dirac be a "silver bullet" against subjective opinion and marketing terms like "musicality","more detail", etc. (often associated with higher-priced components) and also negative terms like "harshness" and co. (usually when a budget alternative comes up)?
I don't know how these attributes can be measured, but if a DAC filter or opamp can change the sound (and add extra distortion) and it's detectable even in an ABX test, does Dirac or any other DRC have the potential to correct it?
