Recently I discovered a new way to improve the sound of my speaker setup.
It aims at the fact that each room has its own acoustical traits that somehow color the sound in an unforeseeable manner.
There are different ways to compensate for these colorations (see link below for an overview).
One very promising way is to measure your room acoustics and use a software to calculate a filter to balance the sound.
I tried a software called Automatic Room Correction (ARC) and it was very easy to handle and the result was really stunning.
If you want to know more about ARC and room correction in general please have a look at my review (posted several weeks ago):

More information about ARC (so far only in German):

And just the usual disclaimer because this review might sound overly positive:
I am in no way affiliated with the developers of ARC - I just stumbled across this software on a German hifi discussion board, bought it and the necessary equipment and now I am really pleased by the results and now want to know what other people think about this approach ...
