Tonearm ringing excited during playback

I play 12" singles on my VPI Scout with JMW-9 Signature arm and Benz-Micro Ebony H cart and the kick drum during any musical passage not containing much, if any other musical information mainly on loud cut dance singles excites a nasty ringing in the audio either from the arm tube or maybe the arm base containing the pivot. I recorded the tone it makes(lowering the stulus on a stationary record and just tapping the turntable plinth excites this ring), E-mailed the file to VPI and they sent me another arm but it didn't fix the problem. Has anyone else encountered this and how did you fix it? I'm wondering if changing the arm to something different would be a good idea or just sell the Scout and get something else altogether.
