I get satisfying bass from my 3W SET system, but my preferences might be different to yours. To me, it is tuneful, flowing, well-timed and reaches about mid-high 20s (assessed using test tones). My Drummer friend calls it natural and effortless; it is not teeth-rattling though. It is not the typical bass you hear from small long-throw drivers driven by massive solid state Watts.
Caveat: my speakers were designed specifically to work with SET amps in my room - this makes a difference - but my amp power supply could do with some redesign to improve bass performance.
