Lyngdorf RP-1 Room Correction Device, opinions pls


I am trying to find a room correction device that is user friendly, stand alone device connected via my tape loop out of my preamp, makes it easily defeatable.
I owned the Tact unit before and I really tried to understand operating it, but was beyond my ability.
So I am hoping to find something less complicated and does not cut into my listen time.
It appears to me that Lyngdorf RP-1 may be what I am looking for but there seems to be no local support except for a few dealers. I looked at the PARC unit, but again not sure.
I am kindly asking owners of the RP-1 what difference likely to be made, does it introduce considerable noise or loss of dynamics, artifical sounding etc.
What I mean is by fixing one problem and creating ten more.
Recommendations of similar devices is welcomed.
Thank you

The Lyngdorf is a good unit. In my experience it made significant sonic improvements without changing the sound in any discernible way. That may sound like a contradiction but in my room it fixed some bass issues, and tightened the overall sound, without changing the sonic characteristics of what was there before. I didn't have a problem finding a setting that I think sounded great. In my system it was called "open air". You may also want to consider their preamp which has room perfect built in, has a high quality built in DAC and digital ins (for transports and servers), and allows bypass for room correction. It can be had very cheaply and is a bargain IMHO.
