Pete,I read the original post as indicating a change from an LP12 to the Pink Triangle. There is a spring suspension on the LP12 and I think the Pink Triangle has a more rigid suspension. Given reasonable setup on the LP12, and given that both turntables are more than reasonable and that the cartridges are likely to be equivalent and quite good to go with the turntables, my feeling was that it was more likely that vibration was a problem. I doubt there is enough difference in the bottom end of either, given good setup, to change things so that sound is boomy due to the room with one turntable and not with the other.
Given that the boom arose with a turntable change, I think it makes sense to eliminate that change as the actual issue before doing anything else. The room is a constant in both situations.
Yes, bass trapping will help anyway, and may even yield an acceptable result, but if vibration is the issue then I think that dealing with that first will yield a better result than bass traps on their own would.
Note that I did leave things open about installing the bass traps afterwards. The combination will be better than either approach on their own, but the issue to deal with first is the one that is causing the problem, and it's important to establish whether that is vibration or not. If it isn't, then the room is definitely the first port of call.
