Hi Emerald,
The presence of 'unwanted bass extension' seems a bit confusing. One thing the UQ lacks is bass extension, detail and bass tone. Is is possible that you are simply hearing bass that the UQ simply could not produce? I don't know the LS50 well at all, but every report from owners is that they are excellent with the Expert series. HK630 uses them with the D200 and in a very small room so he may have some good advice.
As I made the same move from Naim, using ProAc Tabletes at the time, I think that there must be something else in the system that is causing a problem; but I know there is no way the UQ is equal to the Devialet in bass reproduction.
Speaker position? Room reflections? Some other setting in software? Maybe even the Naim speaker cable?
