Unless that system has a multiband dynmics processor built into it,
that is just not possible. Bass *allways* seems to have more dynamic
range than it really has - just look at the equal loudness curves,
they are very close together a low frequencies. Which means that
small objective changes produce a large subjective effect. If you
don't hear the bass at low volumes, that means there isn't enough
of it.
