Myros:
Hello,
I'm a relatively new user and not very fit at this.
Windows and Ubuntu i had before could handle the sound very good, but since
i installed Qubes it sounds like a metal bin.
Any suggestions what i can do?

What soundcard do you have? And what driver is it using?
Open a dom0 terminal and run 'lspci -k'. Also run 'aplay -l'.
There are some settings you can tweak in alsa generally, with regardless
of driver/hardware. For example, run 'alsamixer' in dom0 terminal, and
make sure "gain" is zero. Other settings are specific to your exact
hardware or driver. For example, if your driver is snd_hda_intel,
setting the model= parameter or enable_msi=0 can sometimes help.
Does it sound okay in a Fedora 25 live CD?
If this is a new-ish machine, upgrading the kernel might help.
