It was a Herbie’s Audio product, which I’m sure is good for some  applications but the more research I did the more I realized I needed coupling, not isolation. I have hardwood floors glued to a concrete foundation. Anyway, the speakers are on the...

I don’t know if anyone is following this post any more, but i solved the problem and the bass is so much better. Finally what  was expecting, and I don’t even need the subs anymore. I just coupled the speakers to the floor instead of isolating the...

I guess as a side note--I usually buy used equipment because it let's me get things at a fraction of the cost that I would never be able to afford otherwise. The SFs and the MLs were both used demos from authorized dealers. With the SFs, the deale...

@Audiotroy--never thought the room was that big, but you may be entirely right. I assumed it might have something to do with the fact that there is a half-wall between the living room and the kitchen. Maybe I just need the subs based on the size o... 
Overly sensitive tweeter/midrange
Very good point, and one that's not lost on me.

BTW, not looking for crazy bass, but there is a completeness of sound that I get with the subs that I don't get without. The mids and upper frequencies also sound better with more fulsome bass. Not sure why, but that's what it is. I will say that ...

Thanks all. I'll give it another try. I had 803d2s before. I thought they were to bass light. I moved up to the SFs hoping that would solve the problem. It didn't. I moved up to the MLs from a Classe CA-2200. The MLs have twice the power of the CA... 
Overly sensitive tweeter/midrange
Thanks all! I'll try your suggestions and report back.

It's like the whole system comes alive when the subs are added. I guess I just thought that with the Sonus Fabers and the ML 536s I wouldn't need subwoofers.

They sound great. They just have no bass. The second I turn on the KC 62s the sound is 10x better. I can't believe two $1500 subs make the sound that much better than the MLs and the SFs alone. I must be doing something wrong.

One wall is windows. Floors are wood, but covered by a rug. Plenty of furniture in room.   
Overly sensitive tweeter/midrange
Yes, I've tried that. I've gone back and forth. But the issue is subtle enough and I can't predict when it will do it. I just want to make sure (a) a tweeter or midrange are not damaged; or (b) the crossover isn't having some problem. I bought the...
