Crackling noises (front speaker?) even when music/radio off

I can hear crakling noises in the central front speaker even when radio is off while driving. No problem when the car is stopped.

Always?

I've heard noises from the speakers in areas with no cell phone coverage when the phone in my pocket ups its power to try to contact a cell tower, but that was stopped or at very low speed when the cabin noise level was low.

You may have a loose, or more likely a partially broken, connection.

Thnaks but unfortunately nothing to do with phone coverage.

I hear a crackling noise in the front speaker of my Tesla Model 3 as well. I'm not sure what it is but it happens intermittently when music is playing. It doesn't happened when the car is off or stopped. I wonder what it is and whether I should bring it in for service.
