Actually...

I realize, now, that you are serious about getting more 'warmth' from your (main?) system, in particular.

Why on earth would I want to do that? As for me, I prefer a neutral overall response.

I wonder, though, if with the SoundLabs 8' out from the wall, whether the lower-mids are sufficiently reinforced.

This is a very important point. Regardless of the sonic signature of various components, you want a neutral result in the end. In room measurements vary by +- 1.5 db from 30 hz to 200 hz. As compared to live sources like my wife's baby grand, the lower midrange is as neutral as it measures. You might, however, prefer the garage system where there are 3db peaks at 160 hz and 320 hz which creates some artificial warmth.
