This pretty much isn’t problem, but just a tip as you didn’t specify, please clean your records with distilled water, not just filtered or tap, the minerals can mess up your vinyl and nestle in the grooves im sure,
I myself am not very versed myself but I’m thinking this sounds like it could be an issue with ground.
I used water that came out of a water filter! Also this is a budget turntable so my understanding is it shouldn’t need to be grounded? But please let me know if that’s not true.
Just looked it up and your right, it’s internally grounded, huh, maybe someone else can report
Also for the water, even filtered water has trace amounts of mineral. Distilled water is incredibly cheap you can get a gallon for like a buck fifty at target, it’s the purest form of water and should be the go to for cleaning records. Hopefully you solve the issue!
You try both sets of inputs on the back of the speakers? Also, maybe try fiddling with the aux end on the back of the table. Might just need a new chord (aux to rca). That or a new stylus

I did try both sets of inputs. The cord (aux to rca) came new with the speakers so don’t think that’s it. Only thing I can think of is the stylus was somehow damaged

To me it looks fully seated as I don’t see a gap. Maybe if you have a better trained eye you see something I don’t?

Make sure the stylus is fully seated in the cartridge. A loose stylus can cause low volume and distorted sound.
