Integrated tube amp has no bass Cayin A50T

Hi folks,

So I just bought a Cayin A50T (used, but well looked after), I have set it up at home and found that there is extremely little low end. it's very very noticeable.

Im powering Energy pro series 3.5 bookshelf speakers so nothing too crazy.

I'm very new to this hobby so I would greatly appreciate some help. I doubt the seller will take the amp back.

Thanks in advance for your help!

I have that amp into B&W 685's and they have pretty good bass. I would not say they are bass shy at all.

Must be those speakers or phase or the wrong ohm taps or something but the amp (yes, low power and speakers not extremely effecient...)has bass.
