Tact 2.0S or Tact 2.2XP


I'm looking for a room correction device to cure the bass boom I'm getting in my room.
I've CD and Digital source(Bryston BDP-1) and have external DAC and pre-amp from Bryston.
I don't have any sub-woofer and don't want to use any in future.
It will be connected through digital interface so I don't need any add on cards ... basic unit will do.
But my question is what is the difference between 2.0S and 2.2XP other than sub-woofer connectivity and PC free setup in 2.2XP.
Shouldn't I get the auto room correction and Dynamic room correction features in 2.0S? What will be the problem without those features?
Please share your views.

The 2.0S has been discontinued because newer, faster processors have become available, however for the price difference you will still get all the basic room correction, plus a bunch of nice features that it will take a while to appreciate. No amount of room treatment will accomplish as much, or let you try alternatives while you can still compare the results directly.
All that said, you must be wiling to be patient and learn over time, with a good bit of trial and error. Folks who think they can plug and play will be disappointed. I started with a 2.0, traded up to a 2.0S and then to the integrated 2150XDM. I am still trying out new settings and curves.
The Tact web site is a bit of a mess. The 2.0 and the 2.0S are shown on various pages but are not listed as products for sale. If you select the purchase button for either, the page cannot be found. Boz designs products that do fabulous things, but there are glaring short comings with the consumer information interface.
