i9500 speaker crackling at high volumes - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem with the phone's speaker. When listening to music or on loudspeaker, my speaker crackles horribly. I just noticed his problem within the past month. Can someone point me to where I can buy a replacement part for this speaker so that I can replace it. To clarify, at first, I noticed the speaker crackling at high volume, but on some videos and songs, I get crackling at even medium volume.

I don't have that problem, but I have seen it in many devices, not just this one. It is possible to blow out the speaker by simply driving it too hard. It may be something you could replace, but I can't imagine it would be extremely simple to do. A rule of life for electronics is that they shouldn't be operated at 11 unless you are a member of Spinal Tap.

tmobile wing speaker quality

for some reason the audio quality when the speaker volume is turned up when listening to music or using my ring tone come out really funny sometimes with heavy cracking in audio coming out of speakers, anyone else having problems with the sound quality of the speakers? and is there anyway to improve the sound output.
like any speaker, I let it break in before going full volume. Had it a year without a single problem.

[Q] LG G2 Speaker distortion (Verizon)

I was wondering if anybody else had a speaker distortion issue with the g2 at 80-100% volume. I noticed after playing the song Right Now by Rihanna, her vocals sounded horrid, the middle frequency sounds from 875-3000hz seem distorted, does anybody have a fix. And are you satisfied with the speaker on the phone?

[Q] Does Your S4 Have Sound Hissing?

Hello everyone. Today I revisited my galaxy s4 from my g2. I was listening to music and there was some noticeable hiss.
It was very apparent in low volumes and I was wondering if anybody else has this problem. For example, play a quiet song on the 1 notch for volume on some earbuds. Listen and tell me if you have hissing.
If you do.
I found a fix.
First. Try listening for the hiss on the 1st volume notch.
If you have it.
Go into the stock music player. Press the menu button and click settings.
in the settings menu. Click adapt sound and turn it off.
that should fix any problems.
That worked for me.
But. That was on my original s4.
I got a refurb from assurion because my original was destroyed.
Now I have a hiss no matter what. Even with adapt sound off. It was never on in the first place.
So, guys, tell me, does your s4 hiss???
The first unit I had made a fairly audible hissing sound but after a "PAB" replacement, I haven't noticed it yet.
As a comparison, my laptop does make a slight hissing sound, my iPod shuffle 2nd gen makes a very loud hissing sound, my iPad is the same as my i9505 while my old i9000 does make a hissing sound that is a more audible than my laptop, but not to the extent of my iPod.

Speaker Buzzing

Hey everyone,
My 6P seems to buzz like crazy when I play anything at max volume. Is this a defect? The speakers are still loud and clear but buzz like crazy when I'm around the last 2-3 notches of the volume slider. Obviously loud speakers can cause resonant vibrations but this seems kind of excessive and with everyone talking about how great the speaker quality is I can't help but think that some thing may be up. I'm coming from HTC One (M8) Boomsound speakers and my impression from the 6P's are that they really aren't that great.
I'm having similar issues. I notice it easily when changing ringtones or notification tones. I wonder if this a problem with a gain setting or a QA issues affecting a small number of phones. I'm on MDA89D build.
I had a buzzing speaker problem too then I looked at the EQ on my google music and for some reason it was set funny. I flattened out the EQ to take some bass out and now it doesn't buzz.
The problem actually occurred more with games rather than music. I RMA'd and things appear to be all good now.

Headphone pop at high volumes

Does anyone else have an issue with the audio cutting out when the volume is up high when using headphones? For example, during a phone call, if things get loud, the audio will start popping.
Something's telling me that I may have to RMA, but other than that, I have no other issues. Screen is perfect and I don't want to lose that.
I have the same issue

I have the same issue, I purchased my Nexus 6P yesterday and this exact issues is being experienced. I can only have the audio up 3/4 before the earbuds headphpnes start to pop and cut out. I have tested this on myltiple earbuds headphones and the same issue occurs every time. Any one have any ideas before I take it back under warranty.
