Check running ground wires from your main ground source (back of phono pre maybe)to #1 your tonearm #2 your table, ie...try diffent ground points...may help static drian.
A Hunt EDA brush seems to help get rid of static in my set up. The differnt brush vs velet seem to set up a opposiing charge.... or does something to help
Disc doctor fluid helps with static vs my Record Research.
A Zerostat gun
Licking your fingers before holding your carbon fiber brush, then one licked hand hold the brush, the other hand on a ground point...to drain static from you...
Carpeted floors and your static issue maybe linked. Ditto the humidity discussed above.
Good luck...this can be a pain!
