Sound source is distorted
If the iPhone/iPod original sound source (MP3) is old or of poor quality,
distortion and noise are easily noticed with high-power speakers. Try a
different audio source file.
If you are using an external sound source like older generation of iPod
or iPod Shuffle, try reducing the output volume and turning any bass
boost off on the device.
