Certainly can't say for sure what frequency or frequencies are the culprit but the lowest (around 30 Hz) tend to make things vibrate in my room. Your room dimensions will have standing waves starting around 30 due to the length of your room. There are some calculators on line and a nifty visual one on the real traps site called modecalc. I suggest you try that and see where your first order standing waves are and were they may overlap. Free knowledge.

You didn't mention corner traps which are pretty effective at helping in the mid to upper bass regions. I think the Monsters help in that area as well. It is the less than ~70Hz range that is very difficult to treat.

Have you tried the golden triangle aka Cardas method to locate your speakers? Good place to start.

How far are they from the side walls?

What kind of speakers do you have? (on my phone I can't see signatures)
