How high should it be in relation to the mains? (or is that why you want the full graph?)

Well, that's the rub isn't it. Everyone likes something different.
There's quite a difference as to where the bass starts to rise depending on its relative level compared to the mains. If the mains is low and 'meets' that bass curve shown above at 90Hz for example, that's where the bass starts to rise as the frequency lowers. If the mains is high and 'meets' the curve at 40Hz, it's a whole different story.
To illustrate my point, I'll show you my sub+mains response.
I really like bass. I use a 60Hz crossover so I am able to have a higher level of bass compared to the mains while not getting a bloated sound. The mains 'meet' my sub at about 100Hz because their level is lower than the sub. I get a lot of slam that way. It results in a 100Hz to 30Hz comparison of ~30dB. I also listen at fairly quiet levels, so this works for me.
It's always nice to also see someones sub+main to get an idea about the above situation.

I would imagine that dip at 60hz could have something to do with it.

Although that may clear up completely when the mains are added.....
