I've tried DRC Designer to build up Inguz convolution filters for my
Touch. It helped to build up the RC filters on an easier way, but did
not help to get better results: none of default generated filters give
a correct sound (still horrible cavernous/distorted sound).

Then I tried the evaluation version of Audiolense: once setup, it is
even easier to do the measurements and to build up the filters. But at
the end, I am quite disappointed by the results: I lost the brightness
and crisp of my treble and, even worse, the soundstage was broken. With
RC filters, my left-right channels get clearly separated and my speakers
become "visible" again, like I lost the "center channel" and the whole
spatial representation gets broken.

Does anyone have an advice to imrove my results. I see currently two
possible issues?
1) I did not use mic calibration file in Audiolense and since the
treble response of my mic is quite high, it is probably too much
compensated by RC (this is for the treble issue). Does anyone have a
decent calibration file for Behringer ECM8000?
2) I positioned my mic on my central listening position without exact
measurements of the distance between the mic and the speakers. Maybe
the mic was not exactly equidistant from the speakers and the phase
correction of RC filter moved the stereo focus point away from my
central listening position. Does it seem plausible? I am also thinking
of using string to position the mic exactly at the same distance from
both speakers. Does it make sense?

Conclusion: even if I know that my room frequency response is all but
ideal, this is the one that gives me the better sound right now.
Achieving good results with RC seems rather tricky for me.
