Erik, try using the tone controls.
With my D200 I started out with Kef LS50 and a pair of Kef R400B subs.
I couldn't get the bass/sub integration to my liking, so sought out a larger speaker.
I now have Vandersteen Treo CT , and no subs.
FYI: the Treo is a 4-way design, and exactly the Vandersteen Quatro but without the built-in sub amp.
I still wasn't getting the low bass output to my liking, then I had the "A-Ha !!!" moment of trying the tone controls.
I made SD cards with the bass tone point at 40, 45, 40, 50, 55, 60 Hz.
I have settled on 50Hz and a level of +3
I am now COMPLETELY happy with my bass and no need for subs -> Yippee !!!
