IT has been asked before – https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/2wjkof/eli5_why_does_audio_feedback_always_sound_like_a/

One reason is that performers and sound technicians like microphones that sound ‘sharp’ – ones that emphasize the high pitched sounds. But this also emphisizes the high pitched sounds in feedback, which is why the low frequencies in feedback get drowned out by the high ones.
