I noticed today that there seems to be some speaker distortion when playing certain songs and podcasts. It's as though the volume is set too loud, and the speakers just can't handle it.

Now I realise, that it may just in fact be, that the volume is too loud (I have it set to full), but I wanted to see if anyone else was experiencing this. The only other iPhone I have here to try is an iPhone 5, and that doesn't seem to exhibit the same behaviour. However...the speakers on the 6 Plus seem to go quite a bit louder than the 5's.

One song which causes a lot of distortion is "Lithium" by Evanescence. Not sure if there are multiple versions of this song, but it's the one from the album "The Open Door".

If anyone has that on their 6 Plus, I'd appreciate it if you could try it and see how it sounds. The opening 5 seconds is extremely distorted on my device.

Any and all input appreciated.
