    AirPods Pro 2 unusable at airports

    So I've had my AirPods Pro 2 for about 12 days now and had a couple of flights recently. The audio cut outs are awful at Denver airport when in the gate area (especially Terminal B), I'm talking at least 20 seconds of silence or static intermittently during 60 seconds of audio. Its worse if when...

    CForce CF015Cv2 USB C display OS X problems

    2018 MBP 15 Coil Whine

    I just bought the i7 2.6GHz, 512G version and noticed there is coil whine. It's pretty audible all the time and becomes loud when I use VM. Anyone else having it?

    Reduce static interference from external HDD

    I just got a HDD for my golden oldie Mac. In a classic example of the disadvantages of on-board sound, when the HDD writes or reads, the static byproduct coming through my speakers/headphones sounds like an there's an Atari game running in the background. I have two older HDDs attached, and...

    Headphone static-like 'pop' sound on Mac (sound card turning on/off?)

    Have been using a new MBP 13" 2015 for a few days now, absolute joyride, but there's one minor issue. Whenever a pair of head/earphones is plugged into the audio jack, and before/after a sound is played, a static-like, fuzzy, 'crackle' or 'pop' is heard on the earphones. After reading some...
