Yes, those are bass traps. Although, Auralex foam traps don't really work at 100hz and lower.
I'll move the subs where the front speakers are. I hope there will be an improvement.
When you say "set the crossover cutoff of the SVS to 30hz" you mean set the crossover of the front speakers to 30Hz?
Actually, I just mentioned that if the sub positioning now will make your bass a lot louder.
If ever it does, manual tuning is tricky to avoid localization. Although most people won't recognize where a below 40hz sound would be coming from, there is still a way to integrate the fronts with subs. Looking at the frequency response of the front speakers, Stereophile's measurement shows it is around 45 to 50hz. This may not be the perfect data though since it also varies per room. So it is really a trial and error process.
Pretty hard to explain, it is easier if I am there so I would know how sound interacts with the materials around your place. It will be nice too if you have an RTA. By the way there is an RTA app in iOS and a microphone that you can buy to connect to an iphone. Hehe. So assuming we have those, when you see the front speaker's FR starts to pick up at around 45hz, then set the crossover that way. Then on the sub, if it's FR starts to drop at 35hz, adjust it from 35 to 40hz. It's not a perfect science though, it is still trial and error. The key is to match where both points fall off, but we have to remember that even if it is the roll off point, there is still sound so crossing over both can still amplify the frequency in between. I hope I am making sense LOL.
By the way, I noticed that you got a carpet infront of the subs, those are additional sound absorping materials. So moving the subs to corners will be your best bet.
