Hi Greg,
I went through this a while back, tried various speed / power settings with no improvement.
Thanks to Sam, who looked closely at my toolpath, he found that my circles / curves were not smooth so the cut was not smooth and the results were rubbish.
This was typical of the problem - note how the true horizontals have been cut perfectly yet all other angles are poor.

After cleaning up the dxf the results were much improved.

Hope this helps,
Tweakie.
