Matt,
IMO your response is highly problematic, to the point that it’s probably unequalizable. You have about a 30 dB or more differential between some of your peaks and depressions. That needs to be narrowed to something workable, i.e., ~15 dB or less.
Often when we see response this bad, the problem is a bad sub location. Do you have any other placement options? I’d try a good corner (i.e., one with no unsealable openings in either wall), if you have one available.
Also, it appears you applied some equalization way up in the 130 Hz range. You don’t have your sub crossed over that high, do you? There’s usually no need to apply equalization above the crossover frequency.

Wayne....got a semi-random question for you. Does it make any sense for me to consider a 2nd sub up front if indeed I cannot get the peak/dip range shortened? Still learning here but somewhere I read that dual subs must be tuned the same (13hz) in my case so the point if probably moot because with 8.5feet ceilings I can only go so high with a narrower diameter...just thought I would ask....
Had this crazy idea....Was playing around with Sonosub.exe and it looks like I may be able to get a 24 inch diamter sonosub but the specs would have to be...500 liters, 6.5ft tall, port 8x40, which would give me a 13hz tune.....have I gone off the deep end?
