Speakers to match a CARY SLI-80

I THOUGHT I had the system built, but i feel my bass response is lacking. I am cerrently running

AH! Njoe Tjoeb 4000
DH BL-1 interconnects
CARY SLI-80
Triangle Naia

Listening to jazz and rock has been very nice. The imaging is amazing and the mid-> high is great. The bass, however is lacking. Tight and quick, but there is not very much kick. When the bass walks in the lower register...there is no "ooomph" in it. As for modern tunes. Stuff like Stevie wonder,Jamiroquai, and other BASS heavy tunes don't have the "slam" i am looking for.

So ... here i am posed with my problem

#1 Keep the naia's and wait a year to buy a REL to pair with em.

or

#2 Take em back... and find a speaker set that will meet ALL my goals.

Any suggestions on option #2?

they can be full ranges or restricted + a sub

Must be under $2800

Thanks in advance

Indigosax,
Although I am not familiar with your speakers, I am however a Sli-80 owner. You need to change out your front end tubes. I dont know where you bought it, I use Kevin Deal at Upscale Audio he sells a ton a of Cary and knows how to tube them as good as anyone. Call him he will help, it will be a lot cheaper and easier than new speakers.
Cheers,
Mike
