Here we go.... I thought I am the ultimate smart ass. Then I've seen that people in this forum (including Chris) have been experimenting with Audiolense at least since 2007. And I can confirm evdplancke's statement, that achieving good results with RC is rather tricky. But I still think it's doable, although with a slow learning curve (at least in my case).
My main mistake was the underestimation of the target curve. For my first measurements I always used the same target curve which I downloaded from a user at the Audiolense forum. I thought that later on I could fine tune my results by fiddling with the target curve. But the target curve actually seems to be the heart of RC and that particular curve is total crap. Once I have a reasonable target curve, the vertical position is no longer better than pointing between the speakers. Phase problems are gone in the horizontal position, regardless the rotation on its own axis and once I stopped manipulating delay times everything seems to be ok (see my first sentence). As a starting point I'm now using the target curve suggested at duffroomcorrection.com (see attachment). It sounds not that bad but treble resolution is unsatisfying, especially with classical music. My setup has to be in use unchanged for a couple of weeks before I will post further "findings".
