For that very reason I moved on from subs in my music 2-channel set up and only use them in a separate AV 5.2 system for video and occasional music listening.
The lower end of my music system Dynaudio Contour 20s is beyond adequate for music low notes. I adjusted the EQ of my McIntosh MA352 to reflect my hearing test profile. Then I adjusted the EQ to preference after trying several different music genres.
As @dwest1023 said, so much is in the recording. Now I find that if strong bass lines are in the recording, the Dynaudios will reveal them very nicely. No more booming tracks on some recordings.
