Short background:

Room: before you say it: yes, the room is small.

• Room: 2.6m x 2.5m x 2.5m (LxWxH)
• Room treatment: minimal, it's a rental and I want to move out fast: I bought 6cm-wide 90x30 panels, put two at the first reflection points (mirror test), 2 behind the speakers against the corners. And, super ghetto be ready, an unused bed headboard that's pretty thick fabric behind the listening position (about 2 M tall, 1.5 m wide)
• No ceiling treatment and there won't be any
• Speakers are 1.5m apart (max they can be) and 30 cm from each wall. They are about 1.6 cm to the listening position. minimal toe in, triangle forming behind me

Setup:

• Dunaudio special 40: I measured without any of the rear port plugs (neither the full one, nor the hollow one)
• Primare I35 prisma
• MiniDSP SHD studio (for Dirac)

What I want to correct and achieve - BEFORE I ever got dirac hardware :

• ear fatigue mostly
• I listen to low volumes and I want to keep it that way, so I guess I need to boost bass somewhat after this correction.

Now, I have taken measurements using the narrow sweet spot (9 measurements). And the image is the result. I know most people at first react like "hey, this killed my bass mostly", and that is exactly what I feel. I am aware that getting used to it will take time and that the bass peaks were dominating the room.

Having said that, I was wondering if anyone could orient me into how to tweak the correction. The screenshot has right curtain all the way to the max, but I did create profiles at 1 kHz and 5kHz too and have been trying those primarily.
