Subwoofers masking other frequencies.


Bought a third sub,a svs sb2000 to add to my existing 2 subs hoping for stronger and more detailed bass response. My mains are magnapan 1.7i driven by parasound A21 +. After messing around with  different ways to intergrate the subs I realized some parts of the music was missing or reduced in volume or one channel was stronger .well I turned off one sub at a time and the sound was full. Is this common and what's the remedy for this phenomenon. 
Thanks

Audiokinesis While It’s true when it’s right it’s right. I believe once you get your speakers in phase then you need to readjust the gain on your sub and perhaps change the crossover point.I wouldn’t want my speakers out of phase. Just trying to help Duke not trying to argue.Warmest Regards
This is about the phase control you know you’re in phase when all your speakers are moving in and out exactly at the same time.To do this you simply move the phase knob from 0 to 180 until You achieve the loudest sound then you are in phase. Hope this helps.Best of luck
