The room sim in my room shows the 34 Hz peak I have to EQ out. It’s not prefect in how it maps to actual measurements and you can’t easily look at integration and so on but I do have the predicted peaks

I had a look but you need at least a lap top and I’m only using a tablet since I retired.
I do wonder how it would cope with my room anyway.
Does it take account of wall construction? That had a huge influence on my Naim speakers.

You wont get anything useful from a simulation, but actually measuring would be very useful. It’s managing the RT60’s (time for the reverb to drop by 60db - It’s estimated by looking at 20ms and 30ms etc) This is ‘pretty good’ in a practical room. Left and Right channels, ‘ideally’ from 100 Hz up 300 with a bit of a rise at the lower end

And @Yeti & @Lucifer there has been some really helpful and likely on point info in here.
I’ve known the room to be a slightly boomy but never like this and haven’t heard it for a while with the Tannoy XT6F and chord cables. Almost gone since I got the A7. Then blam, well terminated Nac A4 and its bass soup.
I think this is a toxic combination of bad room acoustics that’s being exacerbated by @Lucifer s observations. I’ll use REW to see what and how this can be fixed. This could be the catalyst to swapping entertainment rooms like I’ve been warning to do for years.

Indeed - and then you can play with different speaker and listening positions, it only taking a few minutes to do a sweep and see the visual output (frequency plot and waterfall graphs).
