Do you still have your DC10Audio speakers? Did you use the Rotel combo with them,or the tubes? You really loved the DC10Audio speakers.How far from the walls are the Defs? Good luck .
Where did you buy the Defs and which version did you go with? Are they the latest version or older versions? Are they very different than your DC10Audios?Thank you
I wouldn't think Rotel gear would be a good match with them. This is probably your culprit.

Before I attempt an answer, it would be helpful to know your room dimensions, relative placement, and what speakers you've used before Zu.

I own a couple of pairs of Omen Defs and found they definitely take some time and effort in setup to get them sounding their best. The bass is greatly affected by the amount of gap between the bottom of the speaker and the floor. Even small differences (1/8") can greatly affect the amount and tone of the bass (smaller gap will result in more bass output). The other thing I have generally noted with Zu speakers is they seem to like a greater spread than other speakers I have had in my room.
