Now I'm checking back in to say...
You folks were right. I've spent about a month with the Primaluna and brought the subwoofer back into the mix. The Primaluna has low mono output for a subwoofer, which I'm using. I had to use Neutrik cable from my Creek before.
The low output RCA is interesting. It's nearly impossible to get the subwoofer to growl, boom, or be noticeably present, which is superb.
You all were so right on--the soundstage is bigger, the highs are more relaxed, and the whole picture of music is more sonically on--all of that without hearing any boom, burps, farts, or ugliness from the sub.
I think I was so excited to hear the Primaluna that I hooked it up without the sub at first. Being bowled over by the sound, I dismissed the sub. I'm definitely glad I brought it back in. Thank you!
