It is not unheard of, for phono-cartridges to have the connector pins mismarked
(although in Shure's case it would surprise me). Check your connections to
make shure *(-- that you didn't mis-connect any of the wires, then reverse
the connections on one channel and see if your bass returns. Also it is not
uncommon to have the cartridges sound change considerably during the first
few hours of play (as the mechanism breaks in - although, again in Shure's
case I would be surprised). It is also possible you received a DOA V15 VMR
and just need to return it. 

Another short note to you high end audiopiles
out there ... You should listen seriously to the new Shure Ultra 500! While
some people thought Shure wasn't making the best cartridges they knew how
to make, Shure went and built a tweeked version of the V15 VMR and it is a
very fine cartridge!!

Since the Ultra 500 is already gold plated it should compete with the
alchemist series *(-- .
