What phono stage are you using. Also table set up can affect bass response significantly.
It doesn't sound like a cable or capacitance issue.

I am using an Audio Research SP8 MkII (which has low pf capacitance) with a high-compliance, Shure V15III. The SP8 has just come back from Audio Research, where it received all new capaciters. It used to have big, orange Sprague caps, but it now has Nichicon caps. I wonder if that could be the difference?
I have been told that the problem with the weak bass could perhaps be because I am not using Sound Anchor stands with my Vandersteen 3A Signatures.

Hate to tell you this, but it could be all of the above.
The caps may take some time to break in, the Vandersteen's may not be set up right. You might try some tonearm adjustments. Right now you need to narrow it down. Do you have access to another phono preamp? Did you have this problem before the ARC upgrade? Have you made any other changes at the same time as the ARC upgrade?
If you had good bass before, you'll need to backtrack.
