Ikeda 9 Cartridge Squeaking


This is an odd issue I have never been able to figure out the last few months. I have an Ikeda 9 Kawami cartridge on a Well Tempered Reference table, with the longer WTR arm. There are a few albums by Mark Isham on Windham Hill label that this cartridge has a high pitched squeak or rubbing sound in the groove. I can hear it and it drives me nuts! Yet on other albums such as George Winston on the same label there is none of this nonsense. 

Overhang is set by an arc protractor with spindle to pivot being 233 degrees. I have not found a factory listed number for this arm, but an owner of a Wally Tractor had one done for his table and reported the 233 mm number. I used an original Feikert and measured 230 mm from the first setting that the previous owner had it at when I obtained this table.  I cannot find a factory protractor for this table, and all the info from Stanalog or Transparent seems to be missing. I am tempted to pull the cartridge off this arm and put it on my Audiomods Series Six with a heavy cartridge plate and see what happens there. But I would prefer to keep the cartridge on this table, but for the life of me I am not sure what the issue is. 

There is nothing on the net regarding this phenomenon that I have found. Anyone experience this, or hear about it? Since the cartridge is similar to a London Decca design, perhaps an owner of those cartridges may have heard something?

Dear neonknight, the gold Ikeda looks like my REX but also like
the new Ikeda 9 TT. But on my Ikeda 9 also the name REX is
written. I assume that Kiwami has integrated headshell. 
@neonknight, your picture looks the same as the one generally referred to as Kiwami.

Earlier discussions have suggested that the gold body Rex and Kiwami were identical and one of them was for export purposes. But if the correct tracking force of Kiwami is between 2.0 and 2.5 gram, than it must be different to Rex (1.5 gram per manual).

However, this brings to mind a similar situation with the Sato Musen Zen Diamond cartridge. There were two technically and cosmetically identical versions, perhaps also for export purposes. One has the word ’Zen’ and the other a Japanese character on the same spot. The only difference is the recommended tracking force......

I know this is highly speculative and probably too far fetched, but could there have been some East/West difference in playback practice that might explain this distinction?

Dear @neonknight  : "  squeak or rubbing sound in the groove.."

I own Ikeda 9 and what you are experienced is due to VTF set up where does not matters what your info about is you must set up a little higher and that problem will disappears, don't distress with.

Regards and enjoy the MUSIC NOT DISTORTIONS,

Ordered a heavy cartridge plate to get the Audiomods arm to 30 grams. Will see how things go on that arm and probably put the A90 on the Well Tempered.
One thing to do is bump up tracking weight on the WT to 2 grams? See what the result is there.

Weird thing is it only does this on three records so far. All by Micheal Hedges released on Windham Hill.
