"Crackling Sound From MacBook Air Speaker: I just purchased a new MacBook Air in September 2021. I've noticed on a few occasions that the speaker is really crackly sometimes and I don't know why. It seems to usually happen when I watch movies or TV. [...]Has anyone else experienced this? If so, what was the fix?[...]"

Perhaps this is a Faulty Device?:
Note that you have a one-year, out-of-the-box, limited-warranty with this. So, if it is covered under warranty, then see if you can get the screen replaced. Being faulty, it likely would be nothing on you. Ask Apple Support for a new screen.
Apple Contact Us Info:
- Contact Us - Choose Locations
- Proceed from there as Necessary
- NOTE: Due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, calls are taking a bit longer to get through. And, that makes sense, because many are at home working out-of-the-house or are taking classes over-the-web, this they have more time on their hands to contact Apple Support. So, it might take a bit to get through to Apple Support. But, just stay on the line, and someone will be with you :)
