| Re: I don't really hear my bass!
Also, another thing is, although I haven't heard your system, some people assume bass is only "good" if it's booming and much louder than the rest of the music. Plus, hip hop and rap tends to have bass in the higher mid-bass range, where it's more audible and boomy.
Just as an example, in my wife's Jetta's stock stereo, I have to turn the bass control (has bass, mid, and treble) down about 5~6 notches for the music we listen to. Which is mostly indie rock (mid and treble are around +2 ~ +3). If it's at 0, it's boomy and gives me a headache. But if the music is hip hop or pop, it doesn't sound nearly as bad with the bass turned up higher. Maybe because there's not as much bass in the 100s when the bass is artificial, so it doesn't sound boomy.
I agree that there could be cancellation in the room, especially with two subs. Try it with just one sub. And have you calibrated the levels of the speakers/subs at all?
