First off congradulations on owning a fine speaker.
Second did you buy these new or used? They need at least 200-300 hrs to break in.
To tame the tweeter a bit while breaking-in try a simply fix of using some copper wire replacing the metal jumpers for the tweeter attenuator or use the supplied tweeter attenuators.
Now to improve the bass, placement and power will handle that. The comment about using the Cardas method is a good one. I have my 3.6R 48" from the front wall. In your case 10ft from the front wall seems rather far, but again look at the Cardas method to help address this.
Finally Magnepans are not for everyone, but given the right setup they are an incredible speaker especially for the $$.
If you bought from a dealer they should be assisting in setting these up for you.
Some people including myself buy the Magnepans only to end up upgrading their power amps, but before you do set up is key.
Happy listening
