I’ve solely started experiencing this problem this morning, I first observed it at round 4 AM. Its 1 PM now.
What I’ve performed to this point:
- Reset PRAM & SMC
- Switched Left & Proper Audio system. The fitting speaker was persistently the one which popped, which makes me marvel why each the macbook speaker and logitech speaker had the crackling.
- Up to date Audio MIDI setup
- Modified the output machine (used in-built audio system earlier than, & Logitech X-140 2 Piece Speaker Set now). Each had popping.
- Switched format to 2 ch 32 bit Float 44.1 kHz
Often it will be 1-2 consecutive pops each 10 minutes or so. It is loud and excessive pitched – it is about the identical pitch as white noise.
It does not appear to be associated with quantity. It does not crackle when the quantity will get louder, and the crackling is not in any respect synced with any peaks of the sound (wherein there are barely any, the sound high quality in any other case is sweet). In actual fact, a lot of the crackling occurs when the quantity is quiet, and even when nothing is taking part in.
I have never dropped or broken the MacBook in any means. What can I do to repair this, and if Apple Restore is critical, how a lot would it not value? Additionally, is it nonetheless a {hardware} problem when each the in-built speaker and plugged in speaker skilled the identical popping?
