Bluetooth Distortion

My 2012 E class recently began having a heavy distortion at the speaks of the Harman Kardon system. I know that it's a Bluetooth issue because it does not do this when I play a CD or AM/FM. Has anyone experienced this and successfully remedied? I guess specifically this problem exists when I play music via iTunes on my phone. Nothing out of the ordinary when I receive phone calls through the Bluetooth.

I had this issue when I got my E as well and it was infuriating. Then I found under the audio options (I think it was) for the Bluethooth something called "Boost". Disable it! Immediately. I bet that will resolve the issue.

(If you can't find it I'll go out to my car and figure out exactly where it is, but I'm pretty sure it's under Audio as I mentioned.)
