Need help with my left hook!

I wanted to know if I could get some suggestions on adding some added punch to my sound. I have a new set up that I have had for a few months, but I have not figured out how to add that one element to my sound. This is what I am using Amp Eden WT550, Cabinet Epifani PS410 (4 OHMS), Bass Bongo 5 HH (not part of the new setup). I can get massive low end (not muddy), with crystal clear highs, and I love it, but not the punch I am use to when using my other setup ( GK 800RB with a Yorkville XC115). I play R&B/Funk and Jazz I want that massive low end and the great highs, but I need some punch.
 
never played one but from what i've heard others say, sounds like it's mostly in the cab. but you should be able to eq some more upper mids into it to bring it out, or bring down the lows and highs a bit. however, since you have two good heads, swap around a little and see if any other combo works for you. no reason you can't use the gk with the epi cab or the eden with the yorkie.
 
I forgot about this thread, so here it is! I found my left hook and developed a mean right cross! When I first posted this thread I really didn't know how to get what I wanted out of my setup, but that changed after so turning of the knobs and trying different settings. Thanks for the advise that also helped a lot!
