if the pH / KH continue to fall and/or stabilize lower than you'd like, you can always throw a little bit of crushed coral in the filter (don't put it in the substrate in case you need to remove it). I have really soft water and my pH kept dropping really low, I threw a little but of crushed coral in the filter and my pH and KH have stabilized very nicely.

I've never used AS so I don't know where the levels stabilize at though.
