After upgrading to Monterey version 12.6 my speakers sound output became distorted. With headphones the sound is clear. How can I return to the old version Catalina.
You can try booting into Safe Mode to see if the internal speakers are now fine. If so, then you have some third party software installed which is causing a problem.
The laptop's speakers may be bad. Have Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider examine the Mac to confirm.
