Tubes and light weight bass

hi everyone

my current system uses shanling sp-80 tube monoblocks, mapletree line 2A tube pre, esound E5 cdp and usher 6371 speakers. I think that bass is on the light side.
I know that when you go with tubes you might lose some bass on the way but i think i lost considerably.
Any suggestions for improvement ? Maybe replace preamp?
Thanks for all comments

I had the same issue with my Manley Stingray and a power cord from DCCA placed on my Cary cdp solved the problem.
Started with Don's Source pc which did a good job and now I'm using his Ref 1 on the Cary and honestly, the bass couldn't be better.
Just my 2 cents.
Good Luck!
