"Per Jico's instruction I am running between 1.25-1.5 gm. I did the VTF with the brush up at 1.8-1.9 gm and subtract the 0.5 to account for when the brush is down"

It is my understanding that the Jico brush only substracts 0.25g? So not the same 0.5g as the original Shure brush.. So either you run with the brush up at 1.25g or with the brush down at 1.5g.

Right now it seems that you are effectively running at 1.55-1.65g (1.8-1.9 minus 0.25). That could explain the sound you are hearing as VTA will be changed quite a bit from the added VTF.

Have you tried 1.25g with the brush up just to confirm?
