Try updating your sound drivers. Locate the make and model of your motherboard (usually on the BIOS screen when you first turn on the computer) and post it back here if you need help finding them.
Hello,
That because maybe due to your itunes player which the installation got error..please try another player other than Itune or play it in windows media player or some other player which you think good player.
Or try reinstall your player or update it.
if this not resolve the issue, then verify the connection of your sound card maybe got grounded to other components making the sound crackle..Or you may try attached a grounding wire from your stuff directed to the ground or attached in any metal that is connected to the ground to eliminate noise.
please tell me what ever result for further analysis

try cleaning your computer of dust using a fine air blower from a compressor making VERY sure that there is no MOISTURE in the air line specifically around the SOUND CARD and the CPU central processing unit dust causes static to build up in a computer causing it to overheat any many other problems
hope this helps

No, it only crackles when sound is being played.
I tried playing music with both QuickTime and Windows Media Player, and QT had the same crackling rate as iTunes, and WMP had reduced crackling, but was still there. I also reinstalled iTunes, and that didn't help either.
Now, about the hardware, I'm using what's on the motherboard, I don't have a seperate sound card. I was under the assumption that the motherboard was already grounded.
If you leave the speakers on, but don't play anything, does it still crackle?
