PROAC D48R Bass Booming

Dear all,  I have just bought a pair of preowned Proac D48R speakers.  I really love these speakers very much.  But the only problem is Bass-boom and because of that, some tracks are unlistenable.  My room is 17 L, 11 W and 10 W.  My source is Ayre CX7EMP and I'm having a Balanced Audio Technology VK3000 SE HYBRID INTEGRATED Amplifier.  Please let me know whether I can solve this problem.  I there any benefit,  if I change my amp and replace it with a Cary Audio SLI100 Tube Integrated amplifier.    Thanks in advance.

Do you have bass traps or other room treatment? I use an active bass trap instead of passive, but the idea is the same https://bagend.com/products/series/active-bass-trap/

You could also try some electronic room EQ, which should be able to fix your problem.

Thanks for the comment. 

OP you don't have any room or system pictures posted. Do you have carpet or rugs in your room, and what is on your walls?

Did you read the review you posted or even hear these speakers?

It appears the OP has a room treatment or placement problem.

It looks like he has it resolved which is great news.
