Where are the subs?

Good fronts under power don’t need the sub to bring the bass. Tune the sub below the fronts, way down. Listen and bring it up to complete not cancel the bass in the fronts. 

A common misconception.

Scroll up and read cal, scroll up and read.

Buy a real quality sub , the new Svs SB 3000 at$995 
will beat anything under $1500 once dialed in. And has a great app
and I owned several very good subs from REL, JL Audio 
who else will give you free shipping ,45 day return with Free return shipping ,  and a 5 year parts and labor warranty  just check it out .

Here’s what’s  interesting to me: Your post was simply to observe and marvel. Many thoughts and recommendations on how to improve your sound with new investments, changes in system, and  and specific brand recommendations. What you are experiencing, it appears, is the assumption that you wanted advice, new gear, or ways to improve upon it.  I have experienced the same thing w/ room-gear interaction and it’s  truly remarkable... reveling and sharing those moments is what it’s all about. Sometimes we miss the forest for the trees.

Happy listening!

     No single sub, no matter how good or expensive, can compete with the bass performance of a 4-sub distributed bass array system.  Even a pair of top quality subs will not match the performance of a 4-sub DBA system.  
     Since dbphd has a 100" video screen in this room for ht, I think it's safe to assume he has multiple seating positions in this room for friends and family enjoying ht together with him. 
     It's possible to optimize bass response using a single sub but only at a single listening position and the bass response will be poor at most other positions in the room.  However, a 4-sub DBA system would provide excellent bass response throughout dbphd's entire 14' x 19' room.
