Crackling loudspeakers - it could be that

Speakers on the PC usually crackle due to a loose contact on the cable or because they are not connected properly. We will show you other possible solutions in this practical tip.

Crackling speakers: You can do that

• First check whether the speakers are really connected correctly. All cables must be fully inserted.
• Then check whether there is a loose connection on the cable. To do this, bend the cable back and forth in the area of ​​the connections. If the crackling changes, the cable is defective and you need to replace it.
• Next, connect the speakers to another device. If you are working properly, there may be a defect in the headphone jack on your computer. Only an exchange helps here.
• Remove all sources of interference. Cell phones and routers or similar devices can influence the function of the loudspeakers and cause crackling.
• It may help to change the volume settings. Turn down the volume on the PC and up on the speakers or vice versa.
• Install the latest drivers for your sound card so the speakers can work properly.
• If the problem cannot be solved as described, the speakers are most likely defective. If you still have a guarantee, you can complain. If the boxes are more than two years old, you are no longer entitled to a guarantee.
• Tip: Bluetooth speakers have no AUX cable and are therefore less susceptible to defects and loose contacts.
