Instead of thinner wire, perhaps the same thing could be achieved in greater amounts by adding a resister to the crossover? Even outside, in line with the wire?

On paper maybe so. In practice I have found using thinner cable emphasises the mid and top over the bass, thicker cable to be the opposite. From a subjective listening point of view of course. But that's what matters after all.
If the problem is lack of control in the bass that needs to be addressed via the power amp. Some can create a whole load of sludge at the bottom end that sounds like lots of bass initially but is actually just distortion. The better the power amp, the cleaner the bass sounds.

Some rooms just dont like big bass speakers imv. Ive had trouble with bass being a tad over what i like(accepted i dont like a lot) thought it was speakers etc and to an extent it was but the room was mostly to blame, and ive got concrete floors. Personally i think its the gap betweem plasterboard and brick thats the cause plus the chimney

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

I used the original Talismans for a number of years and indeed the space at the base of the speakers I filled with sand. Found that about three-quarters filling did the trick of banishing any excessive bass. Mine were used with a concrete floor though. Used with a Quad 606/34.

Socks.
Absolutely the socks.
Try various density bungs to tune the bass to how you like it.
Even a loosely filled port can work wonders.
