Benz LPS Sounds Bad, Very Bad at 45 RPM


Well this may be an issue no one has heard before but i have a fresh Benz LPS with maybe 30 hours on it thus far. It sounds very good at 33 1/3 RPM but sounds horrible (sort of a distortion that my wife can clearly hear) at 45 RPM on anything I have tried (Music Matters Blue Notes, AP Blue Notes and other high cost 45RPM recordings)

Did not have this with my Ruby 2

any thoughts??

I have the LP-S and have used it on two different turntables and two different arms and no issue going from 33 1/3 to 45rpms. Is tracking force, azimuth, etc set correctly? Faster speed may exacerbate some of those settings if incorrect?
