Bass is gone after Nav upgrade?

I have a 2006 V6, pretty standard, Touareg.

It came factory with the single CD/MP3 radio that sounded great! The bass was deep/loud and the mids and highs sounded excellent.

My problem is, I recently put in a 2006 VW RNS2 Nav system and the bass is, hard to say, but tighter? quieter? The original system I had to turn the bass down because it was so deep. When I turn the bass up in the new unit, it's very, like I said, tight. Not deep sounding at all.

Is this normal? Anyone else ever experience anything like this?

Or someone?

I also noticed the speakers are backwards? For example, a particular song starts off with a guitar solo and it's supposed to only play on the left side. However, in my Touareg, it plays on the right.
