I'm working in Audition for years, but never had this before...

The sound quality when I play something in Audition is very low... as if it was super low bitrate..

Any tips where the problem could be ?

We need much more information about your computer and what soundcard you are using. Are these recordings that you have made with Audition or audio files that you are importing? What audio format are they saved as?

In the back of my mind, I recall somebody else mentioning this in the past as well. I have no idea why this would happen though - you'd have to ask Apple, probably.

I confirm that the playback quality is degraded with my Beats Solo Pro headphones.

I just had a similar problem with my Beats Solo Pro. I found that the application was trying to recognize my headphones as an audio and a recording device. All I had to do to fix the quality was go into Preferences - Audio Hardware - Settings... - and right click the "headset" to disable it (there should still be an icon labelled "headphones" that's enabled). You then should be able to change the default output and the master clock to the headphones. Hope this helps!

YOU, my friend, are a freakin' GENIUS! Went to my Audio Hardware Settings, changed the default input from my Sony WH-1000XM3 to 'no input' and BINGO! Full resolution audio monitoring has been restored! Cheers, buddy...I owe you one! 😊

This post is probably way to late to fix your problem, but I think I just figured out the likely solution.  I was just having the same problem, of having really bad playback audio.  I first recorded (via stereo mix) some content and noticed the playback was terrible.  I thought that it was just a bad recording.  But then I dropped a known-good MP3 into Audition and it also sounded terrible.  I eventually found the setting under:  Edit > Preferences > Audio Hardware.  At the bottom of the window find Sample Rate and increase it.  For some reason, my (newly installed) Audition had defaulted the setting to 6000 Hz.  I bumped it up to 48000 Hz and my playback is back to normal.
