I have found that room correction is really based on the quality of the speakers used. Some 'lesser' speakers see improvement as I have found when I had the new SVS Ultra Towers for a few months and used the Anthem ARC software; it really helped these speakers do a smoother job.
Then I got in some Bryston Middle T speakers and found that no matter what I did with trying multiple scans of the room, the ARC mudded up the speakers, so I ran it without room correction and the Bryston Middle T's sounded wonderful. A few months later I got a pair of gorgeous Santos Rosewood Bryston Model T's and hands down, NO ARC needed at all. The T's are just perfect.
My brother who I rarely see came for a visit this past July. He's a video/sound engineer-producer and he has never seen or heard the Bryston Model T speakers. When I put on some high dynamic range music from the 80's-analog of course, he was blown away. He used to work with some of the major bands with live concerts and he said the Bryston's were as good or actually better than what he experienced with the major bands.
So there you have it; NO room correction needed, at least with these speakers. My amps by the way are a pair of the Anthem Statement M1 monoblocks with dedicated 248 v/15 amp feeds running at 2000 watts per channel. The T's love the power.
