I've had this device for over a year, played tons of music with that, and all of a sudden speakers got a dirty sound a few days ago, song still plays but it's not as loud plus you hear "hhhhhhhhhh" sound in the background.
I've checked the speakers, they're clean.
I haven't changed a thing, app-system-wise.
Are they ruined? What can I do?
Not sure if relevant to your issue but, my top speaker was sounding like it was blown. I ordered one ebay and after assembly it still sounded blown. I ended up using a cotton ball and Rubbing alcohol to deep clean the speaker grill and amazingly, the sound was perfect again. I guess the sound was bouncing back, causing the speaker or something internal to rattle.

i've been noticing for the last two weeks that my 8125 has really distorted sound and i realized its coming from the right speaker only. it sounds loud and tiny from that side like i blew out a speaker. can u even do that on these phones? what do u guys think i should do about it.
i love using it to listen to mp3s and watch videos on it with the speakers. even speaker phone sounds horrible
I also have that same problem. Altough for me its not an actual problem, since i rarely use speakerphone, or listens to music through internal speakers.
Whats really a problrm though, is when my phone rings. It sounds like an drunk owl
My phone is just sitting here, and I started hearing this low crackling noise. Anyone else have this problem?
My external speaker busted out of no where after a week, sounded like a blown speaker rattling. Took mine to a sprint store and they replaced it with a new one.
Hey guys.
Is anyone having a problem with the loud speaker sound?
My volume is only half way and there's a tingy/ crackle sound coming from speakers.
It seems like at certain notes or frequencies I hear it but it happens most of the time and it's very annoying.
Everything sounds terrible from my notification sound to even playing games.
I sent my phone in for an issue not long ago and it took 2weeks to get a replacement. Don't really want to send it off for another 2 weeks but I can't live with this sound!
Thanks.
Sounds like you partially blew a speaker.
Quit playing your music so loud? =)

i never play my music or turn up my sound to max.
im really careful with my phone! didn't even take off the plastic screen for 2weeks until my screen protector and hard case came.
loll.
if it is partially blown is this covered under warranty?
thanks.
Never turned it up, eh? Take the back cover off and see if there's loose debris where the speakers are that could cause rattling. Also try playing a song or something to see if both or one of the speakers is doing it. If one or both is in fact blown it should be covered.
Something like this just happened to me this morning.
When ever I raise the volume and right before I hear the "beep" sound this crackle sound comes. I turned my phone off and on and it was good.
Last night listening to music I noticed my head phones were crackling. I checked the head jack and noticed it was very loose. When I barely tapped the headphone connector left to right I'd lose audio and playback would switch to the speakers. Sometimes the noise cancellation notification would pop up. I'm really disappointed, since it's only been a month. Sony says repairs could take as long as a month.

Must have been unfortunate coincidence, I use headphones regularly, no problem..
Try Gold plated jack

I had the headphone jack and usb port do weird stuff too, try blowing a compressor in there or cleaning it with a toothpick. The phone collects dust in those holes and the dust doesn't let the connectors engage properly, leading to a spotty connection.
My Nexus 6p just started experiencing a weird speaker issue. My top speaker is now much quieter than the other speaker. I hadn't changed or updated anything on the device when it happened. The speaker is still working, so it's not blown, but it's very quiet. I didn't spill anything on it or get it wet, it hasn't been dropped, and it's always lived in a full body Unicorn Beetle case. I tried all the usual fixes, rebooted the phone, reinstalled the kernel (ElementalX), and tried adjusting the speaker gains. As a point of reference, to get both speakers to put out an equal amount of sound, I had to lower the right speaker volume dramatically by setting the speaker gains in EX Kernel Manager to Left: 20 (which is default), and Right: 5. This kind of makes the phone unusable though as the total sound output is so low. Any ideas what's wrong here? I'm thinking about tearing it apart to replace the top speaker (or earpiece speaker as the part is called), I've already done a battery replacement awhile back so I'm confident I can do it, I'm just not sure if that would fix the problem.

I had the same problem.

You can try the suggested solution. However, the problem is most probably due to gunk stuck inside ear piece. You could try canned air first. In my case, I took the phone to a repair shop which disassembled the back and applied some kind of solvent to clear the earpiece. Now back to normal. Good luck.
Ps. Nothing to do with speaker. I replaced mine and it was still the same. If speaker blown, there would be no sound or broken sound, but not soft.
