LP Sound Quality

Awhile back I purchased a used LP12 turntable with an Ekos tonearm, Arkiv cartridge with the Lingo power supply & Linto phono pre-amp. Running this thru a couple Klout amps to B&W Nautilus 802 speakers. Playing a CD or Tape the sound is great. Playing an album the sound is not very good. It almost sounds like the singer needs to clear their throat, it's kind of garbled, I guess is the word to use.
All I have is a couple brushes to clean the LP's (Discwasher & Bib).
Curious to what everyone uses to clean their albums & cartridge & also where to purchase? New to this analog stuff.

Thanks !!

Thanks for all the responses.
Mt10425 prob hit the nail on the head "If you are new to vinyl, I suggest that the LP12 is not a starter kit."
Well... this what I have, it came as a package deal.
Still, if someone could point me to where I can get a good LP & needle cleaner. I hate to dive in on setting it up if it's not required. Living in Wichita the closest Linn dealer is KC.

Thanks !!
