I have replaced hammer tips in this area and while it has helped the tone a bit, it has not fixed the issue. I have narrowed it down to the damper arms, and Chris Carroll saw a clip I posted on Facebook and said that it is specifically due to weak damper arms, which apparently happens a lot to older pianos.
I've ordered some new damper arms and felts and am hopeful this will clean up the clangy noisy low end section on my piano.
Thanks everyone for helping me chase down this issue!
