Bass: Jolida 502A + Klipsch Forte

I'm running a stock Jolida 502A with a set of '89 Kilpsch Fortes. I'm using lossless audio files on my Macbook Pro to feed a Musical Fidelity V-DAC via S/PDIF as my source.

Snare drums, shakers, horns, and electric guitars all sound fantastic. Acoustic guitars, string instruments, and vocals sound decent. The isolation and soundstage are pretty impressive given what I paid for the system. But...

Bass tracks in most songs sound super quiet, and the little I can hear lacks the depth and tactile quality of the other instruments. I know these speakers are capable of some serious bass: Is there anything I can do to get more bass out of this setup? Mods? New tubes? New crossovers? Better interconnects/cables?

Thanks for all the great advice! I'm going to try several of these suggestions and report back with my findings.

Mike, how did you get 30 pounds of sand into the bases? It's an intriguing idea.
