You might try cleaning the reader in the cd player. Then next, I'd post this in the audio section for tech help.

Mine sounds better with CD's playing. Might also want to check the plug connections to the CD changer. One end of the cable plugs in under the passenger foot well and of course the other end is plugged into the changer.

Check and clean the connection between your CD changer and the radio. Also take the radio out and check the AUX connection where the changer plugs in to the back. Crackling isn't dirt on the pick up...
