The reason I asked is because my one experience with a noisy cassette, mostly middle cogs, was due to low torque on the lockring. A torque wrench would be good but is not required. You can try tightening it to see if that eliminates the noise. The torque spec is probably shown on the lockring. It needs quite a bit of torque.
