    Not really sure how to describe it because i have never experienced something like this before, but when i am watching videos or listening to music my speakers make this weird cracking/popping sound.

    Sorry this is my first ever post so if you need more information then please let me know.

    Could be a loose connection or you may have an electrical short in one of the connections.

    More often than not such a crackling sound is caused by poor connections, e.g. dirt or corrosion on jacks and/or ports, or volume, balance and tone knobs.
