Terrible dips are terrible yes! I hate it when that happens.
Keep in mind a couple of things about bass traps. Most of your cosmetic appealing bass traps don't do much below 80-100hz. I remember one of Ethan's test where he had several (and I mean several) bass traps standing around his room. There was very little, if any (I can't remember exactly), effect below 80hz. And those weren't very cosmetic appealing either. That doesn't mean that the area above 80hz is not important though... but we are mainly focusing on subs here. Monetary cost might play a factor in this too... for several folks who are looking for the cheapest method.
I have heard of bass traps that tamed frequencies below 80hz, but they took up nearly an entire back wall and it was lots of trial and error and very costly to strategically target a particular response peak.
So for sub 80hz and below... I might would stick the parametric eq back to #2. lol
