Exactly, though centre frequency and gain might also need tweaking for best results.

What is the ideal decay rate (or realistic desired decay rate where sound quality is not compromised - i.e. we obviously aren't listening in anechoic rooms), or do we just want it to be relatively even across the frequency response? |
Ideally decay would be uniform across the band, for domestic rooms the ideal is thought to be around 250-300ms, though there is more tolerance of extended decay times at low frequencies than high. Look for discussions about RT60, a measure of decay time (more relevant for large venues but often discussed in the context of domestic rooms also).

I guess could also be said that boost in particular should be performed at as wide a bandwidth as possible, with subsequent cuts to included peaks, instead of boosting individual dips - which is more likely to introduce ringing? |
Right again
