Bolero:why can't my system reproduce snare well?

For those of you who don't follow my posts religiously, I recently purchased a pair of Martin Logan SL3's. I love them; they especially excel with voices. However, last night, I was listening to Bolero, and the snare sounded terrible. It sounded muffled and faint. I adjusted the settings, and nothing helped. I am using a MC275 and c2300, so I assume the problem is with the speakers. Any suggestions, ideas? Thank you in advance.

This kind of reminds me of when one of the UASF bands was on tour & I attended the concert. Twice I had the opportunity. The last time I was seated a bit farther away in an old refurbushed multilevel theater. Some of the HF I expected to be a bit brighter... but realized that SPL follows the inverse square law. Double the distance & SPL drops by 75%.

Looking at the charts in previous posts shows not much output over 700Hz. Not sure if that's entirely the case...
