So I guess my room is sucking all the bass?
The room is a fair size, and it's only a 12" sub. Corners have quite a positive effect, providing room gain at lower frequencies. Have you tried moving the sub into different positions?

Is this something that BFD could help solve,
Nope, gain is a no-no with a BFD, particularily the amount you need.

I'm using a Nady Audio SPL which looks to be a clone of an older Radio Shack unit, but I'm not sure. I used the old RS correction curve for these graphs, figuring it might be appropriate
I sure wouldn't count on that. There are three versions of the RS meter, each with it's own set of cal files. It would be nice to retest with a known meter/cal file setup. .

note:when you post graphs, try and stick with a vertical scale of 45dB-105dB and horizontal of 20Hz to 200Hz. That way we are all comparing the same graphs
