And I see you have 3x800. That's another gap I have.

Craig, in my living room system with the LFRs and twin 500s, there is no question I can feel the infrasonics at -33 on my Pioneer pre-amp. But I have to turn the gain on both 500s all the way up! This is with a 40Hz crossover and the LFRs full range.
This is via Spotify Premium on Chromecast Audio. I've put the CD on hold at the library to compare. Thank you again for all your advice.

Mojo - It will be interesting to read your results with the disc vs. the Chromecast.

The only two variables left are sources and rooms. Both are cursed. LOL! Pick up a few bundles of rockwool and stick them in the corners as bass traps. If they don't help take them back unopened

I love it when you guys joke around and laugh. Just like when we were kids. I still am.

I gave up on trying to integrate the 500s with the active LFRs in the living room. That room's dimensions simply can't support extra low frequency bass.
So I moved the twin 500s into the basement. It took some math, but I got them integrated with the M100s and the 800. I can't phase align them perfectly with the QS10s. They are within 5 degrees of one QS10 and 7 degrees within the other and I call that good enough. There's nothing I can do about it.
I thought I had great bass and sub-bass, and I would have never believed it if I hadn't heard it myself, but the difference is astounding. Not only is the bass even all around the room, the tactile feel of it is incredible even at lower volumes.
