Strangely Overloaded Bass with SF Concertos....


I have Sonus Faber Concertos (not the newer HOME model) which I power with my Classe CAP 151. This was a truly beautiful sounding setup.

Recently, we moved to a bigger house, and I got the chance to put the speakers on stands - instead of bookshelves.

I havenoticed that while they sound as beautiful and clean as ever on Jazz and Vocals, on rock, the Bass sounds tremendously overdriven if I give em even a little power.
I use a Classe CAP 151 - plenty of clean power, never even gets above 1/4 of its potential.

Could they be too close to rear wall? Don't know if it is my amp or speakers.... both are 2 years old, and hardly ever really taken out for a POWERFUL drive...
