End of Record Distortion


I have a Denon DP59l turntaple with a Denon cart. on some records the sound gets distorted towards the end of the side. Which cartridge angle do I need to adjust to fix this, and what tool do I have to have.

some records? Any of them "simply Vinyl" 180 gram....?
I have two "Dire Straits" lps, "Brothers in Arms", and "Love over Gold". Both lps are dead quiet until the very end of the last song, side two, of both lps. As the music fades out there is a distorted static sound just before the lead out on the records.
Jea48,
Is that static sound worse in the left channel? If so, and assuming that cleaning does not help, I'd suspect a pressing flaw. That sound can be caused by the vinyl not flowing fully down into the L channel groove modulations, typically because the temp was too low when they started pressing that copy. It tends to happen on the L channel because that is the inner groove wall. The molten vinyl is pressed from the center outward. If it's not hot enough to flow smoothly it can skip over part of the downward slope as it moves past the groove and leave a gap.
Dougdeacon, I just checked, it is comming thru the right channel. "brothers in Arms" is the most noticeable of the two lps. The noise is kind of like a distorted clickady click sound. But different from the sound of a scratch. The area on the vinyl appears slightly different than the rest of the last song. I always clean a new album before playing it. I repeated cleaning the two lps, but made no difference.
My set up is correct. I have checked it with "Hi-Fi News" Analog Test lp. It is the fault of the two lps. What you said makes sense.
Thanks for the info. By the way you have a very nice system.
I was just about to send this thread ,I decided to take a closer look at the lp "BnA". I watched the label to get a reference to the noise. I then took the lp and looked at it closely under a bright light, slightly moving the record side to side. Walla two very small indentation,dimples, in the vinyl close together.

Thinkat, I was going thru Agon turntables and I seen a Denon DP-59L. Does your table have a end of record auto lift feature? You mentioned that a few records the sound was distorted near the end. Have you noticed if the distorted albums are longer in time than the lps that are not distorted. Could it be a mechanical problem? If the table does have an auto left feature how is it triggered?
Thinkat, I just read my thread again, I am sure you figured out what I was trying to say. I noticed I left out the word tonearm. End of record play auto tonearm lift.
