You are overloading the inputs. This comes from a signal being too strong for the inputs of the pre-amp. This is not a problem for those who use boards because all mixers offer a “Trim” knob to adjust the amount of voltage fed to the pre-amplifier's input.
On a fixed device, the inputs will overload and distort. A cartridge can offer an output at various ranges pending on the manufacture. DJ needles (by design) offer a stronger signal whereas, a consumer cartridge will deliver a lower output to prevent input overload to the pre-amp section.
Cheers!
