Underpowered?
B 4 you do anything, check the connections on the back of each speaker. Are they connected to the lower terminals? If not, that may be the reason they are lacking bass.  
What a pile of Schiit
Yes, that is strange.  I see, on their website: under Products, left hand column, under Upgrades, the Phono Card is offered for the Asgard 3.  or- Do this: order the stand alone Mani for $129.  
30 to 50 watts seems to be all I desire
It is the gain on both the preamp and power amp that effects the use of the volume control. I have a tubed pre, with adj. gain, combined with a 27db of gain on my amp. The pre`s gain set to 16 db= too loud; volume at 9:00, the pre`s gain set to 8...

@joey54 You getting too high of a volume, past 9 o’clock, has nothing to do with an impedance mismatch. It is the high gain on your preamp combined with the gain of your amplifier. The impedance mismatch may cause a roll off on the bass from your ...

Advice needed re: new CD player purchase
If you insist on a SACD player for hybrid discs, why not one of higher level Yamahas for 2-4 grand? 
Is pre-out the same ?
Check the specks in the owners manual for output impedance of pre-outs. In general, since your intg. is solid state, solid state outs are low impedance- you should be good to go. " I believe that it is a 1 to 10 ratio of impedance from preamp to ...
