Johny Cash's Hurt cover from the Nine Inch Nails can go over the top too. Starting where the lyric is "if I could start again a million miles away" and the piano builds up.
There's a very common misconseption who's covered who. Many are suprised that it's actualy Johnny Cash that covered NIN. What version exactly are you talking of Nick?
Yes, it is. It's just the way I've read your first line misguided me that you were saying the contrary.
Curtains up, very different sound. More focus which is good, but something is bothering me 
, maybe I need to get used to it. I will do some measuring to see what has happened.

I see a more even curve, especially over 2000 Hz. The bass peaks at 50/63 Hz is stronger but probably has nothing to do with the curtains. I also did a room measuring analyzing room nodes and I got some very long lasting ones in the bass, but I do not know how to tackle that. But I regard this as a step forward anyway.

Yes I think I know Salas, it is a bit muddy, unclear bass that I find annoying. My guess is that since it is "smoother" and more focused and detailed in the mid-range and high-range, the bass problems in room sticks out more now since the rest is better. It is harder to get this under control like we all know. I have been trying to find some white damping panels to put on the wall behind speakers to further improve mid-range clarity but only found expensive ones or the wrong color (like the one I already have, does not look vg). I also have been trying to listen for voice focus, when I sit further away from speakers almost aimed directly at me it is focused but singers sound small, when I do the opposite moving forward so I can see more and more of the inside speaker wall it gets pleasantly wide and I also think you better hear the character of voices, but they sound unreal wide.
I have decent bass but the room is not optimal, destroying some of it. But it is not a big problem, I just want to improve it if I can 🙂.
nice
I see you have very nice stands
but have you tried to place them a bit lower and tilting them slightly back ?
I'm just curious

No, actually they were taller before but I shortened them a little to be more in line with the original. Not tried tilting them. I have to find a way to improve room acoustics if I want to get further is my opinion. The speakers are good, wish the room was too.
I didn't mean to say bright
if you haven't tried to tilt them, I would be interested to hear how it sounds if you do
(if possible without risking any damage)
just curious ... again

Those two bands (63HZ and the bar before) look like room modes. We all have a room sound. Striving for perfection takes to either locate in another better room (!), or use bass traps, or distributed subs like Geddes, or manipulate via DSP like with a Lyngdorf DPA-1 pre etc.
