External Speaker Static: Problem with audio jack?
I don't believe that anyone on the forums had the same question.
I am having trouble with my macbook pro. Whenever I plug in external speakers, I get bad static (very loud, about as loud as the speaker's audio itself). I have tested this on multiple speakers and get the same results on all of them. When used on another computer, the speakers work fine. This suggests that it is something wrong with my audio jack for my mac.
I noticed that the 3.5 mm plug doesn't go all the way into the jack. There is about a millimeter millimeter or two of space This isn't much, but may be resulting in the static. I have tried forcing the plug all the way in, but it still does not go in. Any ideas?
I am trying to avoid having to get a bluetooth speaker or anything wireless.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.7)
