can I get some opinions - bass on magnepan mg20.1

can another audiogoner give me experienced opinions of the bass on the 20.1's - I just got a new pair and have been breaking them in, but I have no bottom end to speak of. It sounds like the woofers are 5-6db behind (lower output)the midrange and tweeter ribbons. I have tried many room positions and equipment changes no drastic changes result in the bottom end. equipment is a BAT pre;MC501's; and a Marantz SA7S1 CD. Help I'm going nuts - you should not have to try hard to like and listen to your system.

Thanks for your response. Greg.

1. Check out the MUG at Audio Asylum. Tons of hepl there.
2. Wyred4Sound amps have the speed and authority that Maggies need
3. As an alternative to custom stands, get tie down (see AA for this info- HiOnFi)and wrap completely around the top of the speakers and under the OEM stands. Then add Herbies Big Fat Dots
