Adding additional subwoofer


In my current home theater/ music room I have a void in my primary listening position.  I'm currently running a JL Fathom 113.  I've installed bass traps in the corners and it has helped, but the void is still present.  At this point I am thinking about either adding another 113 or a pair of 110's.   If I go with the 110's I would keep the 113 as the LFE and the 110's in the back of the room as stereo subwoofers.  

What do you think would be the better option?

My mains are Kef reference 3’s with a 2c center, Lyngdorf-50 AVR with a McIntosh MC207 powering everything.

I’ve tried moving my listening position forward and back, but I am then either too far forward or too far back.

When I used a 50 hz test tone, the center of the room had a 3 +/- db dip.  All sub frequencies were similar.  It really didn’t matter where I placed the sub, the void was still present in the center of the room. Some areas were worse but nowhere was great.

When I set up the sub I first ran DARO on the sub and then ran Room Perfect with the Lyngdorf. While all of this made things better, things are still not as good as they could be.
