Are you talking about the M&K Satellite-Volkswoofer combo? If so, what do
you mean by "more bass"? I've got this setup, and while I admit they're not
the cleanest sounding speaker in the world, they do have some of the lowest
bass I've heard (especially compared to non subwoofer systems). They also
give a lot of latitude in setting them up (a level control and three possible 
frequency curves on the woofer, and six possible "sounds" for the speakers).

How come people never mention what kind of music they listen to the most
when they ask for speaker recommendations? I heartily recommend the M&K's
to rock lovers, but they don't do very well with classical (at least not as
well as other speakers at the same or higher price).
