I hope most people agree that room correction is probably the most important aspect of getting the best sound in your listening space. And please correct me if I missed some older threads with details but I would love to know definitively / objectively if, for example, Dirac is better than Audyssey and Audyssey is better than YPAO etc. And specifically the criteria to judge why one better than the other.
I am probably going to invest some money this year is 'fixing' my converted garage, maybe some acoustic treatments, maybe minidsp with Dirac, maybe some 'home grown' configuration with CamillaDSP on a RaspberryPI, or maybe some other solution but before I do I would like to understand how to evaluate what is best. It just seems very subjective, once I bring this topic someone will quickly tell me Dirac is the best or that I need some specific room treatment all without IMO any satisfactory evidence other than the "trust me I know what I am talking about". And I mostly understand the science behind accoustic treatments and DSP / FIR etc based 'software' corrections.
Anyway, if there are studies or measurements comparisons between the different available options I would love to read about them.
