Paul,
Sorry to hear your AT3032's are not performing up to your 
expectations. I second John's suggestion. If you are certain the 
abnormal response or artifact lies in the lower registers, it would 
help to select a sound from (or record a test in) a quiet location 
away from low frequency sound sources. It common for locations to 
have lots of energy in this part of the spectrum. A wooden barrier 
can lift the upper mid-range and brighten-up the sound a bit, but it 
typically does not emphasize the lows. Of course, if you have other 
mics you can make recordings with in the same location/conditions, 
they'll will provide additional reference. Rob D.
