Records with words with the letter S are slurred

I know this must be here somewhere but there is a lot to go through so I am asking the question.
Why does a turntable slur words with a s? This does not do it with all my records but when it does it is very annoying

I got rid of it by buying better speakers with soft dome tweeters. Highs are still strong and extended but "S" sounds are very clean and natural.

Maybe recheck your setup. If with other sources and/or all sources, then speakers, cables, speaker room placement, plus a lot more.
