Ah, that wasn't clear from his post and why i thought it looked much more like a processor than a measurement of loudspeaker in a room..

What he may want is something an acquaintance at work, Steve Barbor developed called LARES which creates that impression on command impression.

My introduction with it was my partner at work Mike playing a trumpet on stage in a large church while the LARES operator took the room sound from a very dry semi-anechoic space slowly to a giant cave in a very believable manner.

The trick is having multiple microphones in the room and DSP that de-correlates the sound, the opposite what what i have to do with speakers themselves.

If one is concerned with "the stereo image", the impulse he showed would be TERRIBLE if that was 1 speaker at the listening position. The space between the first/ direct arrival and the trail of reflected signals that follow is critical for stereo imaging, with LARES, all the late energy is well behind that critical range (and why close sidewall reflections screw up the recording's image too).
