Loud thump when I power on or off


I have some NHT VT3's hooked up to a fairly nice system. The amp is the Mc6850. These speakers have the built in power amps and come with a preamp of they're own. The thumping noise never happened on my last several pairs of speakers with my current Amp. It also seems to of gotten quite a bit worse since I hooked up a turntable a few weeks ago. It is worse when the volume is turned up more.
I don't mean to sound like an idiot but my first few ideas are as follows: Buy a line conditioner, hmm, not sure what else. Do I have a ground issue? Does anyone have any ideas. Thanks,

Hiend2: What is the point of floating a ground? Either it should be grounded or not exist at all because if it's floating around you might hurt some one!
