Interesting problem. My guess is you are actually playing the Rockport louder for some reason probably a psycho acoustic issue. You would have to look at the frequency response vs the other speakers and compare actual sound pressure levels which is useless advise because you can't do it without the other speakers and measuring equipment.
But, ears hurting is not a good thing and you have to avoid that if you want your hearing to last.
You can play around with positioning and room treatment or get a room control system that will allow you to play around with the frequency response. You might find that a notch filter at 3000 Hz helps.
