Err I'm not quite sure about this but i think that if your room is
entirely rigid then the minimum frequency you can play is one which has
a wavelength 4 times the largest dimension. 
a. I assume your room is not 8x8x8
b. you don't have to be able to fit one wavelength in, (think of the
symmetries)
c. if the walls are not perfectly rgid (eg stud partitions) then the
waves may just pass straight through so the room from the point of view
of bass notes is bigger than the room as you see it.

This is kind of from memory but i'm sure there will be someone along
who knows what they are talking about.

Ofd cpurse the dimensions of the room will create all sorts of  peaks
and nulls. With DRC my room has reasonably flat bass response beklow
30hZ and above 40Hz but i have a null around 30-40Hz which I cannot
fill. I assume this is somethign to do with negative interference of a
stadning wave. Perhaps acoustic treatments would help.
