Should my note 9 top speaker sound better than the bottom speaker?

[Android Central Question]

I recently received my note 9 and the top speaker clearly has much better audio quality than the bottom speaker. The top speaker is slightly louder and is much more clear than the bottom which sounds somewhat distorted and muffled. Can anyone compare and provide feedback?
