I think the answer is more complicated than using tone controls. You will not get more bass drive by boosting the bass. You’ll likely just end up with less, as things may end up sounding boomy. The figure of 20bB mentioned means four times the perceived loudness, which is a big difference.
All I can say is that when I fettled NCC220 boards into my NAP140, I’d find satisfaction at lower volumes. I don’t imagine tone controls could have done that. I know this doesn’t help you in the slightest, though perhaps your amp needs servicing? Or perhaps the speakers?
