I do not personally believe room compensation should be tried in any electronic form (except maybe for Nelson Pass' (I think) noise cancellation/ standing wave cancellation scheme) Passive room comp (deadening, etc) can have good effect, but adaptive room eq is too big a can of worms for me :-) Any further comments welcomed on speaker compensation.
