My internal speakers sound terrible?

I just buy my MacBook Pro (mid-2012) yesterday and something so expensive, my speakers are downright awful. I must admit that my musical knowledge is adequate (to not kill me if I use a little evil) but it feels like there is no bass or treble. They sound just so "hollow" If you know what I mean. When I plug the apple earbuds, they sound a lot and even on my audio computer Dell laptop for £300 sounds good (well, certainly much better than my current experience). Is this a common problem or is it just me?

Audio feels like I'm listening through them terribly cheap, really crap headphones (you know the ones you get with android phones)

Hello

Yes I heard there was a problem on some of the new MacBook Pro, you can try pressing ⌘⌥2 (Command-Option-2) and it will bring up the equalizer. When you open go to the side where you see "pre-amp". If it isn't already, click on the box that says on and then turn it to the top. It might be useful it might not.

  • Sound went along with internal speakers?

    Hello, I use a MacBook Air laptop and my sound no longer works. When I go and check the internal speakers of available devices is not available sound remotely right LogMeIn, which I have no idea what it is, and the type is peripheral network. The output volume is at max as the input volume with headphones in or on the entry level not up or down in function speaks to me just randomly. Any response would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

  • Pavilion DV4: Laptop plays sound through headphones but not by internal speakers

    Audio was working fine on my laptop, when suddenly the laptop would not play sound with internal speakers.  If I plug in headphones sound is fine.  Execution of control panel of configuration/sounds shows 'Speakers and dual headphone - IDT High Definition Audio CODEC' enabled and set as the default device, as well as "independent double headphones" (enabled by default but not) and 'SPDIF (Digital Out via HP docking station)' disabled.  What can be wrong?

  • Satellite L350 - no sound on internal speakers

    A few months ago the internal speakers fell silent. The laptop had been in hibernation. The pledge of speakers at the bottom of the page will still go up and down just no sound. The sound is ok when I plug in external speakers.
    The sound came back a number of times when I was in gaming.gambling sites. However, once I restart the laptop, it's back to no sound. I did the checking amoderne on windows 7 sites and he said everthing is working fine/uptodate. I installed the proposed pilot realtrek toshiba website, but nothing helped.
    This seems to be a common problem with laptops Tosbiba watching different help sites.

    Suggestions please...

    To be honest I don t understand why you think that exact this question must be a problem on Toshiba laptops.

    Your old L350 came with Vista and it would be interesting to know if the same thing will happen with original Toshiba (Vista) recovery image.
    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem may be and all this you can do first is to check all the sound settings.

    If I understand you just sound back time in time (gaming.gambling sites). Can you confirm this?

    Sound still works when I connect to my USB external sound card.

    Internal speakers still work (I can hear the start-up tone when I turn on the machine).

    In preferences / system I see "Digital output" instead of "internal speaker".

    Volume buttons do not work,

    Audio output leddoes not light.

  • T440 - Sound does not switch between the internal speakers and headphones listening or return

    Hello community,

    Let me first explain how I assumed that the switch between headset and speakers should work:
    I turn on the music or anything else and if no headphones are connected, all sound from the internal speakers. Now if I plug headphones then sound comes exclusively from the helmet. If I go out then again the sound comes from the speakers and so on.

    In my case, the situation is the following:
    If I have no headset connected and turn on the music, then I heard if via the speakers. If I decide to continue to listen to this music through a headphone and plug them in, then the music continues to come from the speakers, but for example, the outlook notification sound is delivered in the headphones. It works vice versa.
    If I open, say youtube for a video, while having the headphone is plugged, I hear the sound through them. If I now unplugg, them, the speakers will remain silent.

    What can I do that if there is no external speakers connected (helmet, etc.) all sound will be played through the internal speakers, if I plug in a kind of external speaker, it's their part and if I unplugg it it switches back on the internal speakers?

    Thank you very much for your help!

    Best regards

    Look in Control Panel audio Realtek. It should be an option multistreaming, make sure it is set to unify all devices.

  • No sound on internal speakers in DV6000

    I have a laptop DV6-265us running MS Vista SP2.

    Recently, my speakers Altec Lansing internal has stopped working.  First of all, it was the left speaker, then both.  I thought for sure the speakers just died, so I ordered a replacement on EBay and just am and successor yesterday.  BUT, I still have no sound.  I can plug external speakers into the speaker port and they work fine.

    Now here's the strange thing.  The speaker in the tray icon works exactly as it did before.  Its does not display a red X or error at all.  I can test the sound and the Visual looks like his work, but there is nothing that comes out of loudspeakers.  I went to the Control Panel, Device Manager and there is no red Xs anywhere.  The device driver said his works very well, but I have no confidence in it, so I did a restore of the HP driver and give the original that came with the laptop.... Still nothing.

    I read the articles of troubleshooting on the HP Support pages, but nothing has worked so far.  My next step is to replace the sound card or the power button.   I'm not sure of the sound card because I don't know how its connected in speakers AND plug in external speakers work.  It of really a sup Board and seems to have only the external ports for microphone and speakers, as well as the infra-red port.  The internal speakers are plugged into the power button card and I thought that this is where the problem is maybe as putting in a new internal speaker doesn't seem to work.  The microphone is also connected on the power button, but that seems to work well.

    No one knows if I fake road with the power button?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi all

    Well believe it or not, I had my speakers work again.  Lots of hit and accuracy to get there, but its working now.  You don't have to bother with downloading drivers, I tried them all and none of them worked.  Unfortunately, it was a hardware problem, which means that you need to open your laptop.  If you are not comfortable with this, you can obtain the necessary parts and get them in a store of the computer (such as Micro Center) and see if they can change the parts to you.

    Here's what I did.

    -Changed the internal speaker Altec (did not help)

    -Changed the power button (did not see a change)

    -Changed the button of power and LED board ZIF cables (BINGO)

    I'm sure that stakeholders were not the problem, since I put the old ones back in and they work.  From what I can tell, it's the combination of the power button and the 2 ZIF cables.  I could find all these parts on EBay.  The power button has been about $ 17 and 2 ZIF (flat) cables are about $9.  Search for part # 431437-001, and you should be able to find the flat cables and the power button.  Not sure if the same manufacturer for other portable model.  Check the maintenance and Service of Guide for your model.

    If you want to DIY then I suggest you download the maintenance and the Guide Service for laptop HP Pavilion dv6000.  You can get this on the HP customer care site.  Unfortunately, that was the only help that HP has been for me.  Never had any feedback on this issue.

    Good luck.  I hope this helps.

    Check with the manufacturer of your system's support and their forums (if any).

    Have you checked on the website of the manufacturer of the device for the latest drivers?

    Realtek - HD Audio Codec Driver right side
    http://www.Realtek.com.tw/

    Download - SAVE - will click with the button straight on and RUN AS ADMIN

    NOTE: Often restore audio drivers to check the version after installing and restarting is
    see if the version you have installed is there, otherwise repeat the installation - restart until it is. This may take
    several tests according to the recommitments how much he makes.

  • "Tinny" sound from internal speakers Dell XPS 1645

    I got my Dell XPS 1645 for about 4-5 years so maybe it's just a problem of wear.

    I am running Chrome and watch a stream on twitch.tv August 23 to about 75% volume level when there was a sharp fall in terms of audio quality; now everything seems thin / no bass/distortion plus silent.

    Audio performance was great before this event and always beautiful with headphones (this is the internal speakers which are reached).

    To clarify, the sound is muffled or spindly; It is not a noise or interference and the volume settings have not been changed as to cause this effect to my knowledge.

    I tried all the solutions I could find but I would like to know if there is something I don't understand!

    I uninstalled the IDT drivers and reinstalled from the dell site and other sites, I tried to use the default Microsoft drivers.

    I ran the Diagnostics Dell PC Checkup trials; speakers pass.

    I've disabled the improvements and messed around with properties of speaker without result.

    Speakers can still go to 100% flight (of course, this sounds horrible). Also, I have never historically played audio at levels like that nor I had problems with the audio in the past.

    I blew my speakers? Is there a loose connection? More important is there anything I can try or do? I prefer not having to pay massive amounts of replacements because it will mean probably deserting me a ship from Dell for good and get a nice update!

    Hello. The Studio XPS 1645 model had a "subwoofer". He has probably stopped working on your device. If you want to replace or are looking for a loose connection, you can get the service manual with instructions for the page documents Studio 1645, and the play itself is going for $5-10 on ebay.

  • Windows 7 - sound through the internal speakers but not headphones...

    I've upgraded to Windows 7 and got the latest Realtek HD Audio driver, and the internal speakers work fine. Nothing is coming through the headphones well. In the Audio Device Manager, it lists the headphones as "Realtek Digital Output" and seems to work, but there is no sound. Before I could just plug my headphones and it would turn off the speakers and only use the headphones. Help! Any ideas?

  • No sound from internal speakers

    I have an Asus A53S laptop series that I recently installed Windows 7 Home Premium on.

    I can't sound playing through the internal speakers.
    I installed the codecs Realtek Audio (drivers?), but that did not fix the problem.
    The sound plays through my helmet and the bar of his small jumps when I try to change the level of volume with or without a helmet, so I think that the computer recognizes that the speakers are installed, it also allows me to change the settings on the speakers via the menu of playback devices. I'm puzzled. Any ideas?

    Hi Sparkplug94 and IndigoTal,

    If you have not already the case, make sure that all audio devices are active in the BIOS.

    * Modification of the BIOS / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk

  • NO sound on internal speakers on HP DV6000 after upgrading Windows XP to Windows 7

    I upgraded my HP DV6000 from XP to Windows 7 and everything worked fine for several weeks.  Then internal speakers stopped working.  All the settings seem normal.  When it is docked to the XB3000 dock my dock speaker right works.  When headphones are inserted only my left ear phone offers a sound.  No help from HP.  Win 7 is great.  HP is not much help.  Troubleshooting even and then no result.  They do not fundamentally support my upgrade, even if the laptop is labeled Vista compatible.  Help, please!  I have what, in my opinion, are the most up-to-date drivers.  My chip is intel Centrino Duo and the speakers are Conexant

    Hi John,.

    I can't seem to find what chipset is in your machine. But I don't think that this has nothing to do with this issue. If the internal speakers do not work with 3rd driver Conexant and the Inbox class driver HD Audio, it may be a hardware problem. The internal speakers are disabled when a cable is plugged into the headphone jack. So, you could check and see if you can find something wrong with it. If you don't think that it stopped working after an update, you can try to use the system restore and select a restore point to where he worked.

    Thank you
