I spotted this on DIY Audio and wondered if it might be of interest;

Thanks Ray, that looks like it would work well, especially if you don't hit any room nodes
Unfortunately I do so not a useful curve for me

Brian, if you read the article you'll see that it's not a fixed curve, you can explore defining your own via the software tool that's mentioned.

I read it, but need more than a simple curve

I hit 50Hz which is my first room node, but I need bass reduction from about 80Hz down, not boost. From there up to 150Hz, I need a slight boost

I also have a big notch in the left speaker at 70Hz due to a bay window, and fill it in with the right speaker with DEQ so I can’t overdrive it

I think it’s a good idea for equalising speakers, but rooms can be much more difficult
