If none of the other things listed here work I can also give you a couple things to try. I had several issues with my Pro-Ject turntable and but FAR the two biggest things I did to improve sound was buying a scale to measure the ACTUAL downforce on the needle and adjusting it to the correct weight. I followed the directions included with the turntable over and over again and I kept getting the same muddled sound that I knew just wasn’t right. Once I got the scale I was able to see that the downforce on the needle was WAY too much, once I backed it off it sounded 1000 times better. Also, too much downforce on the needle will ruin your vinyl prematurely. The second thing was an anti static platter mat, which helped a little with the popping. Also get yourself a really good dust brush.
Dust brushes come in a few different styles. I have been using the skinny one I listed first below but I am going to order the 2nd one I’ve listed soon, it looks promising. The other is like a shave cream style that I’ve heard others say works very well.
Good Luck! Keep us posted on what solves your issue!
