You can get past the low end buildup by using open back-style cabs. A bit sacriligious if you think the only way to big heavy guitar sounds come only from a sealed back 4x12, but it works when you start getting up to 3-4 passes for a single guitar voice (with the same panning, of course). Keep in mind the law of diminishing returns, btw. You won't get the 4x12 bump with it, but you will have a tight lowend without having to do squats.
Elevating the cabinet off the ground works wonders with the low end too. If you leave the cab on the floor, try to tilt it back some to reduce the floor reflections.
