Excellent, thanks Sonnie, I have viewed that post and discovered / studied many additional comparisons of REW V.S. Dirac Live, all most informative.
Having said that, my conclusion is that DIRAC Live would be the choice given my system, room and needs.
Thanks again for your prompt and useful...
Presently I have an all analog system. Is there a way to run this analog only source material through such processors as DIRAC, if so what do I need (aside from the obvious Windows 10 PC) ? I assume I must pre-digitize all source material ? What about FM Radio ?
I would appreciate guidance...

I am looking for enlightenment... here are two of my latest REW files for this room in its current state, one with, one without subs, both fully Equalized. Until now I have only paid attention to the SPL readings.
What else should I be examining for modification and improvement? (I.E...
With reference to DanDan's response, most intriguing - opened my eyes to technical aspects of sound absorption. I found a good introductory article on this, check it here "Sound Absorption - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics" (I cannot post links yet, sorry) Thanks DanDan, more food for...
Many thanks to all for your kind suggestions, food for thought. Another less than fortunate factor is that this listening room is our living room, so few options are available as any radical décor changes will be... problematic.
I have and will continue to enjoy these Forums, much to be...
Although not at all unexpected, my change from broadloom to hardwood flooring in my listening room has left me with what I consider an undesirable reverberant audio environment. Using REW I re-equalized the room, but of course this still leaves the echos. I am looking for some wisdom on taming...
