My Sonus Faber Amatis have weak bass even though I'm running ML 536s--800 w/ch into 4 ohms

I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I thought the new monos would solve the problem. I still have to use subwoofers to feel like my system has any bass. I've tried speaker placement but to no avail. I realize it could be room issues, but short of packing my room pull of room treatment, there has to be something else. The drivers work, it just doesn't sound full. Should I get a different speaker? At this price, I expected more.

I have a similar sized room. If you have ruled out wiring problems you may want to return the speakers. It wouldn't be the first time something Italian left the factory with a problem. 

I am running Yamaha NS-5000's driven by Wyred 4 Sound SX-1000R monoblocks with a Rythmik G25HP subwoofer. Bass is fine on axis. 

You may want a full surround system from what you write. Get three bids from sound installers. Big rooms are trickier.
