Default Decreased performance in audio

Yesterday i installed my aftermarket pioneer headunit. One thing that i realized is that now the speakers dont "bump" as hard as they used to. Could this be because of the internal amp? When my factory unit was installed the speakers used to hit hard but now they hardly move. Do u think its the internal amp or is it the settings in the headunit? BTW i have a pioneer deh-p7700mp, 1995 volvo 850 4dr sedan non turbo. Thanks

Did you try adjusting all the settings in the Radio? Bass/Treble

My pioneer deck hits hard for truck speakers. Try changing through presets and increasing the bass. There is no way a "aftermarket" head unit is going to get out performed by factory. Specially a pioneer, go through all your settings. My dads pioneer has so many fricking settings I got lost in it all..
