Tai- As mentioned, speaker placement, listening position, and room treatments are all necessary areas to consider with your current problem. Having owned them at one time, might I suggest that you try other cables as well. This is not a jab at Transparent, just that I too felt a similar lack of weight with the Trans Reference. They are, as the name implies, very transparent and articulate, but I found them to be tonally shifted upward, lacking the foundation in the mid to lower bass in my system (Spectral, at that time). If you want cables with networks, check out the top products from MIT. Otherwise, try some other cables, including power cords. Good luck.
Where s the bass?
My system - Sony CD player, Pass Labs X0 preamp & X600 amps, Thiel 7.2 and Transparent Reference cables. I believe the sound is open, transparent, and dynamics. However I just wish I could put an emphasis on the bottom end. Tone controls are not available on high quality Class A preamps, such as the X0. While I understand that adding one more component in the signal paths is not desirable as it will further degrade the sound, I would like to hear your opinions on the best way to boost the bottom end. Thank you.
