Hi Michele,
The advantage of longer FIR filters is that they allow better frequency resolution. So they can correct even very narrow peaks or dips in the frequency domain. You are correct, that with a smaller filter it is not normally possible correct very fine features.
However, with our method, the filter is not applied with uniform resolution in the frequency domain. This means it can correct better in the low frequencies than a "regular" 512 tap filter. This is an important part of our patent because, as you know, most problems in small rooms are in the low frequencies.
I would appreciate if you could translate in Italian for the other forum users. Unfortunately, although I speak Italian, I don't know all of the technical terms in Italian.

I was wondering if I could link here the PDF file you sent me with frequency response graphs before and after MultEQ correction measured in 6 different positions.
I think it could be very interesting!
Regarding my doubts they concern, as I wrote, phase and frequency response.
As you wrote on AVSForum, and I completly agree, the IIR filters problem is you have not any control on time domain (i.e. on phase), and if IIR filters are not properly designed frequency domain correction could leads to worse results dued to phase problems given by them.
I do not know if what I am going to write is correct, as I said I am only a digital room correction systems enthusiast: due to Gabor inequality you have df*dt>1/2, so practically speaking strong frequency corrections (i.e. trying to correct even very narrow dips or peaks) will leads to poor phase correction if FIR filter is not long enough.
So I was wondering how deep a 512taps non-uniform filter could correct both in phase and frequency domain, simply speaking could you give and approximation, in a standard case, for the taps relation between a uniform resolution FIR filters performance and a non-uniform FIR filters performance? (hope it is understandable, I know it's a quite confused period, but my english is quite poor!).
Thank you very much for the time you are spending here.:)
