I think I ended up narrowing down the issue. My apologies as it seems to have been setting related (I was driving my new NEMA23 way too fast according to the reprap firmware EMF calculator), I backed off the maximum speed and my problem seems to have resolved itself. Thank you all for your suggestions and help.
