that's it,one way or the other.a small basic trap kit is around 3k at your door.here with a Tact you get a pre amp with room correction?????

With the Tact, you can get preamp, dac, crossover, and room correction features depending on how the unit is configured.
However, I strongly suggest that you add some room treatments before going with ANY form of room correction.
Room correction can be a powerful tool, but it can't bend or break the laws of physics.
Concentrating on speaker/listen placement and room treatments first, will allow room correction to strut its stuff and allow you to really optimize your system.
