Un, sorry to hear about the speaker crash.
Hopefully all is well.

You seem to have come across the same bass sound that i did when using the speakers 'small' settings. I have found peace for both HT and music using the second method of setup with 'large' options in place.
However it sounds like you tried that and were still unsatisfied. This also happened to me the first time i was setting up my system and as Alan suggested, try a different placement for the subwoofer.
My original location was to the left of my listening area about 4 feet out but now the sub sits up front next to my m60s on the inside b/w the 2 speakers. (If i had put it on the outside of the m60 it would be sitting in a corner...too much boom again).
Positioning really can be important.
