Default Beolit 707 - Disappointed with sound

After many years of trying to acquire one at a decent price, I've finally got one. I cleaned up the case, etc. and really like the way it looks. I set up the audio section quiescent current and centre point voltage as per the service sheet. It works well but I'm disappointed with the sound.

For such a large speaker, which is in good working order, I was expecting more bass and it seems to begin distorting at volume level 6-7. It sounds similar with battery or mains power. Is this expected performance?
