Assuming alignment is correct, and you cleaned the stylus, you should also be careful playing your vinyl with that cart just in case it is extremely worn or chipped. Try to verify for damage with magnification. Sounds like a new cartridge might be in order.
Fuzzy distortion on vinyl........Stylus issue?
Need some advice from the Turntable & Stylus crowd. I have an issue whereupon my vinyl has a tiny bit of fuzzy distortion when playing. This happens on brand new 180g albums as well as my collection from the 70's-80's.
Is this a stylus issue? or my cartridge (Ortofon Red MM)? Streaming & CD/SACD sound fine.
