Olive was comparing commercial room EQ devices. The "best one" won, but it may or may not be the best possible. As I think is well explained in my book, if you begin with a well designed loudspeaker you will end up with a preferred room curve. But, as Cosmic said, if you equalize a Brand X loudspeaker to match that curve there is no assurance that it will sound like a winner. Good sound begins at the source - either a superb musical instrument well played or a neutral loudspeaker reproducing a good recording of that instrument.
Still, doesn’t Olive suggest that a specific speaker can be enhanced by DSP based room compensation?
So, according to Olive, if you have a good speaker, like BW802n, you should invest in room compensation for frequencies up to at least 500 Hz?
In other words, a good speaker is, good, while a good speaker plus good DSP based room compensation is better (still according to Olive)?
