681091 2008-06-22 11:33:00 I've got my TV hooked up to my stereo, and my Xbox & PC hooked up to my TV.

When I play xbox games I notice a lot of crackling in the stereo speakers, but playing music through the PC or xbox is fine.

What could be causing the crackling? I thought it might be the 3.5mm (stereo end) to RCA cable (TV end) I'm using, but I swapped it with a spare one I had & it hasn't made any difference.

681093 2008-06-22 23:11:00 Throw the speakers away and keep the crackling - some geeks here would kill for a bit of crackling

:D

It's either the TV input that's causing it, or the input on your stereo. Do your TV speakers crackle when you disconnect the stereo? If not, then I'd say it's the stereo input, so try a different input.

681098 2008-06-23 02:18:00 When smoke emerges, the crackling is pretty much done. R2x1 (4628)
681099 2008-06-23 04:05:00 does it happen with all games or just some? and is it constant or only when sound is playing, or there's high volume etc? Agent_24 (57)
681100 2008-06-23 04:34:00 it is all games. Only when there are loud sounds. I don't get the crackling on the TV - just the stereo. Greven (91)
