Helmholtz resonator?
Usually needs to be too big for a domestic room.
Having the sofa on the back wall helps as it operates like a bass trap. Problem is you need to be sitting a few feet in front of it! Definitely experiment with the speakers further into the room. Don't have the bass drivers equidistant from the floor and walls either.
I hear you regarding the DSP. Although I just added convolution dsp using a new method to Roon on my mains and it's improved things. The mains are Dynaudio Air 20 so very flat to begin with.

Thanks for the insight. I think I’m mainly battling flutter echo, which the ceiling should help with. Just popped some bass traps into the 3D model of our living room and my wife went mental, so perhaps I’ll have to shelf that idea. Helmholtz resonator?
Really don’t want to use DSP as the Tannoys sound so good with no fiddling, switching from DSPed smaller speakers to these guys was a revelation. It’s really easy to do DSP wrong I think. I’d rather have a more fun than “accurate” sound.
Might have to move the sofa off the back wall somehow. I’ll invent some kind of excuse…
