tonearm and cartridge XXXXX

I have several thousand jazz lps, from all time periods, used and new,mostly used, but newer reissues like the wonderful Music Matters, Analoque Productions and good ole OJC, among others. You should not have an issue with the kind of distortion you describe if your tonearm and cartridge are compatible. I had a similar issue with a Sumiko MMT tonearm a few years back, it drove me crazy!!!I never figured it out but got rid of the table an AR es and tonearm.I kept the ZYX cartridge which works great on my Nottingham Interspace with REGA RB600 arm.
I have heard the MMF 2.2 at a local dealer and it sounded sweet and smooth. It came with a Rega Elys cartridge I think. First, bring your annoying lps to a friends and check them out on another rig . My hypothesis is a bad tonearm /cartridge combo. Cheers,Chet
