If by "certain aspects of setup" you mean alignment then I'd say no; I doubt that could be the problem even if you hadn't used a protractor. But vertical tracking force can SLIGHTLY change the equation (try it at different settings and see - usually higher is better).Some would say that 8-9hz is not the ideal range and the common recommendation is actually 10-12hz. But under extreme circumstance, such as an interaction with your thorens suspension, an even higher resonance might give better performance.
As suggested, I'd try tweaking the mass of the arm with bluetac/putty/etc and rechecking the woofer movement levels.
And also as suggested by the other poster, the thorens springs may need replacing or modding with foam aswell.
Sorry I can't give you a definitive answer. You may have to experiment a bit. Perhaps others like John Elison will chime in and provide you with more understanding or a solution. Good luck.
