Interesting, I had just the opposite result with a 50-watt Audio Research Classic 60 (well, actually a hybrid) and later a VT-60 (pure tube) and a pair of Virgos. The bass was warmish but very detailed, taut when necessary and there was that sense of perfect pitch. Certainly not a lot of "slam" but it went plenty deep enough, just as Fremer described. To my ears, the bass was actually the highlight of the Virgo sound, this with lowish-powered but quality tube amps. I would also suggest taking seriously the speaker positioning technique that Audio Physics and Fremer have described, in which you map out the room to identify the bass null and bass reinforcement areas, this will enable you to get the best bass out of the speaker.
