Bass is not enough !!! Speaker problem? Speaker cable? Power Amp? PC of Power Amp?


The bass is not enough!!  Not sure which part is not good enough. Can anyone give any idea??

My system:
Speaker: Sonus Faber Amati (SC = Jorma Prime)
Power amp: Esoteric A80 mono blocks (IC = Transparent Opus MM )
Pre-amp: Esoteric C-02 (PC = Jorma Prime)

PC for Power Amp:
I had been using BMI Oceanic Statement。The sound was beautiful, but the bass was not low enough.
I changed to NBS Black Label II 。The bass was better, but still it was not good enough. However, the sound was not as good as BMI Oceanic Statement. So now I have changed back to BMI .

How I can improve the bass performance??
Amati's weak point is bass? Jorma Prime's bass is weak? 

Thanks!!

A Los Angeles Orange County Audiophile Society friend of mine has a 250K+ system that he only plays vinyl records on.  Outstanding (solid state) equipment, speakers, cables, etc. but NO BASS.  Then, after three years he finally upgraded his MC cartridge.  Now he has thunder in his room.  Look to the source. 

For you tube people (like me) go for the KT150 if you can.  Better bass over the KT88 and a night and day difference when compared to the EL34.
