I love GIK, and love their bass traps. I often say good room treatment can make speakers sound a lot bigger and more powerful.
You cleaned up the room modes, and helped the room drain off bass faster. This means smoother frequency response and less ringing or overhang.
Often in a room, those bass modes will increase the effective bass, making everything sound muddy. You can over-do it, but it sounds like you did it just right.
One thing people don't know also is how much off-axis room treatment can help. They think only first reflection points matter, but that's not the case.
Glad you found a good combination for you!
Best,
