I had another pair exactly like that Sonys they also outperformed the insignia for bass . But they sounded good when I ran them with each other..insignia are hooked up correctly just have no low bass . Or mid bass under 80hz
I turned the bass up +10 on the receiver . It’s just by basement system no sub output on this stereo amp

So should I just switch the banana plugs so the opposite colors are connected as right now? They produce some bass it’s just not deep at all. I’ll go try it. They have the frequency response of satellites . Nothing under 80hz
Nope still not much bass at all. They do sound pretty good though. I’m not saying they are junk.
I turned treble down all the way they definitely produce bass . Just I can’t hear it sitting 10 feet away . It’s in the basement. Up close I hear it.
They get good reviews but I don’t have a sub I can attach to this amp. Insignia ns str514

it can run two pairs of speakers.

As Cal has said, reversing the +/- (red/black) connections on ONE of the speakers should make a "striking difference" to the level of the bass output.
However, I notice that a customer review of the Insignia NS-SP213 bookshelf speakers mentions the lack of bass output:
"I bought these speakers and hooked it up to a matching Insignia receiver. The sound quality is great and more than enough for a room. However, the speakers could use some more bass. A subwoofer needs to be added if you want more bass. Otherwise, sound quality is good for the price."
