Confirm whether you have the same issue when using headphones or external speakers. If you only have the crackling sound when using the built-in speakers, then you have a hardware issue which will need to be repaired by Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider.

If the headphone or external speakers also have the same crackling sound, then may you have a software issue, an issue with the source audio, or perhaps you have a grounding issue with your connected devices or possibly a home electrical wiring problem if the crackling only occurs when using the charger with the duckbill adapter.
