It seems to be an extremely common issue. Hopefully apple will get that fixed soon, or I'll be returning mine. Other than the ringing/crackling, they have great audio quality. The thread I linked has instruction on how to temporarily fix the issue through accessibility settings. Try that out and see if it helps
