I understand you did your homework, but the dimensions of your room are not close to the Cardas Golden Ratio. 26’ x 13 x 7 is a real problem and perhaps not even solvable regardless of how much money you throw into your room. Cardas Ratio would be 18 x 13 or thereabouts.
What I am saying is that if you have a carpenter put up a wall at around the 18’ on the long side of your room (cutting out 8 feet of length), then you would have a much more tolerable room that will not have bass nodes that are not going to go away and as you are learning, would require another subwoofer to even have a chance of resolving the issue. My point is that a length shortening wall would be much less expensive and provide immediate results with respects to sound.
I am throwing out ideas as bimmerlover has done and would agree with him that smaller subwoofers would be easier to implement regardless of the room size and allow for easier manueverability. We are all getting up in age and you certainly have chosen "heavies" to deal with going forward.
Whatever you decide, and you seem to be having fun, but if you jettison any of your equipment (and are on the east coast) let me know! I would be happy to come and pay a fair price for what you don’t want and help you move stuff around. Heck, I have gear (and portable dampening boxes) that would help you understand where your node issues exist. Trying to help!
Enjoy the music!
