I've got a pair of subs I'm gonna have a play around with tomorrow, see how I get on after that.
But room treatment could be something to think about, thanks

Oliver's correct regarding the interconnects . I would try a heavier copper speaker cable and see if that works .

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!”

Hi,
Your system as others have said should be good, I haven’t heard Ushers but it could be them as others have said, however you say TT and cartridge is new. I tried out a Hana SL a few weeks ago and is a good cartridge, good bass and smooth mods, and sweet top end, very good VFM. But have you checked that The VTA is set right for it, for most the arm should be parallel to the record. If the back of the arm is up then it will enhance the top and if down will enforce the bass. Some cartridges are tricky to get right and once you hit the sweet spot the sing with detail across the frequency Randy range. Worth checking it might be fine.
Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

Could be the Usher speakers, according to HFW they measure flat in room which means they will sound a bit lean. http://www.hi-fiworld.co.uk/index.ph...o.html?start=3 and I'd expect the Jordans to be even leaner.
You've got a Rega and a Lenco deck, does it sound lean with both? Some/most belt drive decks sound a bit thin in the bass but Lencos don't tend to so is the problem there with both decks?
Would help if you have a digital source to compare with so that the variables of the vinyl set up can be bypassed, if it is still lean with the digital then it's not the decks at fault.
I wouldn't piss about with cables until you've eliminated the more likely possibilities. The speakers look like the culprit to me though, especially if the room is a fair size and you have a bit of space about them I'd expect them to sound a bit bright and thin. Don't fall into the trap of blaming the recordings!

went to a great bake off which included the ushers . i didnt think they were particualrly bright

might be worth playing with some different amps and pre amps perhaps .

Cheers for the reply guys,
I've added a sub this morn at 50hz that's helped a lot.
Alan Firebottle has kindly offered to come over and have a listen, he's gonna bring a bit of kit with him so hopefully we can pinpoint it
