Thanks for your review.

The only way to know for sure whether your speakers perform as designed is to measure them, of course. But to be honest, they aren't intended to provide a lot of deep bass. I almost always recommend they be used with (helper woofer) flanking subs, both for added extension and for smoothing.

Helper Woofer Location

The response is slightly overdamped, and this prevents them from sounding boomy, even when pushed hard or in rooms with strong modes. I think that's a better approach, especially when blended with subs. And even without subs, I think they sound better this way. But do consider adding subs, positioned just to the side and slightly behind your main speakers. Set them up as described in the thread linked above. I think you'll love that combination, for both music and movies.
