The problem with absorption panels- it kills the fine details

Absorption panels can be very helpful if used judiciously and appropriately. 

Many listeners overdamped their rooms. The entire room doesn't need to be treated, areas of reflections can help to keep music lively and realistic.

That's why after you take care of the resonance in your room with the absorbing panels, you need to install diffuser panels to regain the clarity you just lost, but you are now achieving that without any resonance! I know, it's a difficult process that many audiophiles rather do without. However not my case, check out my house of stereo system, it was not easy but ultra rewarding in the end.

So I’ve concluded I really don’t need all that crap on the walls.

It might be necessary in the recording studio where microphones are employed. The human brain is capable of amazing things the microphone cannot. Don't make the mistake of thinking the microphone is at all relevant in the listening room. This is why room correction, especially software fails miserably. Ditch room correction as unnecessary academic garbage.

A recording studio never makes a good listening room.

It would be so helpful to see your system and listening room. It might help understand your disdain of room treatment better. 

Room treatments are not tweaks, they're meant to solve specific problems created by the listening environment.
