Ongoing Crackling Sound in AirPods Pro 2

Hello everyone,

I’m experiencing a persistent crackling sound in both of my AirPods Pro 2. I initially had the issue with the left AirPod, and since they were under AppleCare, they were replaced. However, the replacement set now has the same problem in both the left and right AirPods.

I’ve tried all troubleshooting steps: resetting, updating firmware, and checking for interference, but nothing has worked. Unfortunately, my AppleCare has expired.

Has anyone else faced this issue? Any advice or solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you!
