All, Just a reminder that room modes lead to overemphasis or underemphasis of certain frequencies at certain locations in the room. Changing the position of your loudspeakers can mix up the reinforcement and cancellation effects from standing waves so that variations throughout the room are less stark. Once you've done that, experiment with the position of the general seating area to find a place where the bass response is most even. You might be surprised about what you can achieve. Then, once this is done, that's the time to use DSP if you want more.
With optimal positioning and even with DSP, the room modes will still have a higher RT60 (longer reverb) than other frequencies. Bass treatments of some kind are usually a good idea to even out the RT60 in the bass. Don't get me wrong, my opinion is that DSP is a valid solution many times, at least when it comes to bass.
