I will say one thing, I use bass traps in all corners, it makes a huge difference to the sound. You room is 50% of what you hear. Take your system into another room just to see how different it will sound if you are not convinced.
I would not consider a sub at this level. Integration and getting sufficient speed from the sub puts me off. I use my REL for movies only.

My B1s sound great in my room integrated with a pair of JL Audio f112s used for both music and HT. I purposely bought the 112s since they have the speed required for music.
That said, I had acoustic treatments (walls & ceiling) professionally installed to help correct the room's shortcomings, so that definitely helps. And, while my Classe SSP-800 has digital EQ to help smooth out the room's peaks and valley, I've also inserted an analog parametric EQ for use when listening to my Linn kit for 2-channel. It sounds pretty damn good if I do say so myself!
