Records with words with the letter S are slurred


I know this must be here somewhere but there is a lot to go through so I am asking the question.
Why does a turntable slur words with a s? This does not do it with all my records but when it does it is very annoying

In my experience what you are hearing is an artifact of mist racking. Some records are pressed "hot" and sibilance is unavoidable. Goodxalignment and set up are key and having a cartridge that tracks well also helps
