I'm confused - Different music...different speakers?


Thanks for allowing me this exploration. I've been on Audiogon before and find myself here for a very different reason this time.
I do believe my system is well resolving and will define gear at the end
Yet I keep getting steered to music genre based on sound.
What I mean by this is simple.
I can't seem to listen to old rock n roll favorites anymore.
There are albums I know from the past inside out and upside down - one example: The Allman Brother's at Fillmore East. I can mostly play every bit of this on guitar. I own three good copies on vinyl and can stream it at hi-res on Qobuz.
There are two drummers and Berry Oakley on bass- no slouch. Duane on slide...etc. An Epic and dynamic album
I can't listen to it - the metal tweeters are just aggravating. And what I remember from the bass and percussion is slam from the very opening to the end - it's not here.
What is going on here?
Gear is as follows:
Analogue side is a Nottingham Space 294, 12" Ace arm, Lyra Delos Cart and an EAR 834 MM/MC phono stage
Digital is an Antelope Zodiac plus with Voltikus power supply
All good and better cables
Totem Hawk floor standers
Amp is a Rogue Cronus w/ KT120 output tubes
Play Bill Evans or Bach ....and I can watch the paint melt off the walls and love every second of it......
I'm at a loss and thanks

You folks are awesome - thanks for all the responses.
Yes a sub is being considered. Which I am unsure but REL looks promising
Yes Totems are sitting with the factory feet, or claws as they call them
And yes I’m asking for a lot from a 5.5" woofer - that makes sense
No I haven’t mass loaded them - maybe something to consider
I also listened to the Fillmore East album again - interesting in that there is an unevenness of the recording from track to track, with some tracks sounding much better then others.
I do think switching to the 4 ohm taps will help - maybe this weekend
I’m really not much of rocker anymore and for most of my listening I very much enjoy this system. I’d be fine if I did nothing...but we all know how this hobby works........
Room treatment - this is the elephant in the room so to speak - My coffee table consists of two flat files for drawings. There are 30 plus years of paper - literally weighing a ton. If that isn’t a bass sink I don’t know what is. So my next effort will be to find another spot for them. This is really a big deal. Stupid me....
Thanks again everyone for some great insight. A pleasure to be here.

Look for the acoustic rendition of Elizabeth Reed on An Evening With...2nd set. Nice for your Totems!

Since you are sticking with the Hawks, before going forward with room treatment, mass load them AND try them on something like Townshend Audio Seismic Platforms. Then room treatment. Then sub.

 

 

There are no such sounds in nature (rock) - this is every time the author’s invention ... interpretation

P / S - if a person after 30 years old listens to such music - I feel sorry for him - he remained a child ...

sometimes 1-2 songs can be listened to (if nostalgia)

This statement strikes me as the posing of an ignorant person who assumes a pretense of sophistication by criticizing the musical tastes of others.
