<3 Ventrilo but I've noticed there is a crackling sound when people talk too loud (i.e laugh) Is this an issue for anyone else? I was thinking it's a cheap sound card but I dunno what they even put in the MBPs. What'cha guys think?
I'm currently shouting at my MacBook Pro and don't hear any crackling
Seriously though - is it crackling or distortion? I use external speakers (via optical though) but when I did connect them by analogue I'd bring down the volume of the output from my Mac and let the speakers do the amplifying.
The built in speakers are pretty gash, I don't use them at all.
