Problem w/ Components HELP!

Hey guys hows it going, long time no post!

I recently had my JL VR Series components installed. I had an amp hooked up to them a DB Drive amp. It does 80 watts at 4 ohms I believe. I was really looking forward to something loud and that had clean mids and decent bass range. The VR's are supposed to handle up to 100 watts "ampage". I am very disappointed to say the least! Even when I mess witht he HU and put all the soound to the Front, no sound! Is that right? When I'm driving I touched to speaker panel to make sure they are working and they feel like the woofer part is moving and all but I dunno. Was I expecting too much. I had them put in some dynamat extreme speaker kits would that have any bearing on the situation? I am deeply depressed due to the fact that these components aren;t really bumping....not like sub bumping but something decent. It seems like I ma getting more bass form my Sony Xplode Coaxials in the rear!!!!! WTF! PLEASE HELP ME OUT FELLAS...SHOULD I JUST TAKE IT BACK AND HAVE THEM TWEAK IT? WHAT DO I DO? BETTER AMP? IT'S FRIGGIN FRUSTRATING!

Thanks guys...
-Ryan

if someone professionally installed it... they should have tuned it. there could be numerous problems but i say go back there...only because they installed the stuff, not because they know what they are doing.
