Class D Option For Bass
Here are a couple options — “only” 200Wpc but put out considerably more into 4 Ohms so hard to imagine it’s not enough.  Best of luck. https://www.usaudiomart.com/details/650117824-bel-canto-design-ref500s-in-black/   https://classdaudio.com/pro...

Subwoofers and Seating Position for Klipsch Forte iv's
a lot to think about. I think the crawl method might be best. I completely agree and was hoping you’d be up for that.  The other placements are just general guidelines and may or may not work well/best in your particular room because every room... 
Gustard U18 with Gustard R26 dac?
Nice!  Love to hear your impressions once it settles in. 🤞🤞🤞 And hey, if everyone’s grammar here was anywhere near as good as yours this would be a much more user-friendly place. 🙄
