Room nodes exist throughout a room. It doesn’t really matter where the speakers are located, nodes will be there no?
If you are rolling side to side along a mixing console you are likely to be rolling through peaks and troughs, no matter if you have the nearfields or the mains on.
Using correction software it is possible to have multiple presets for different locations in your room. For example if you’re mixing you might have one setting. If you’re over in front of your keyboard rack you can have another. So correction software can hold that together…just not in all places at once.
I would have thought that moving side to side would have a bigger effect in nearfield as it takes less distance to move the same degree off axis as when in far field. Hence why there is generally a smaller sweet spot in nearfield.
