If your speakers are sizzling, try to identify the source of the problem first, as there are multiple factors involved.


To find out if the problem is with your speakers, try plugging another device into your computer, such as headphones, earphones, or other speakers.

Plug them into the same jack and check if the problem persists.

If this is the case, it may be that the membrane of your speaker is damaged, and requires replacement.

What could be the origin of the problem?

Is the jack plug fully inserted?

Sometimes an improperly seated jack is enough to cause an unpleasant sizzle.

To remedy this, remove the jack plug, then insert it fully into its corresponding socket.

Is there a bad contact in the jack cable?

Over the years, it often happens that the jack cable is damaged.

The result may be no sound, or a crackle if there is a false contact.

To resolve this problem, try to move the jack cable in several places, in particular near the jack or a component (microphone, headset controls, etc.).

If the sizzle changes or disappears temporarily, it is a false contact.

You must then repair your jack cable.

Is the audio file corrupted?

Sometimes it is simply the playing audio file that is faulty, causing the crackle.

To identify this problem, it's very simple: all you have to do is start another MP3 file for playback, or another audio stream.

Is there any device nearby that is causing interference?

Several devices in your home generate waves and can interfere with your speaker circuits.

To identify this type of problem, simply move cell phones or WiFi antennas away from sizzling speakers, or even turn them off completely.

Is the electric current of poor quality?

More annoying, if your speakers crackle, it could be because of a malfunction in the electrical circuit of your house.

To be sure, unplug your computer from the power outlet and use it on its battery to play audio files.

If the sizzle is interrupted, the problem may be with a poor quality of your electric current.

It may be necessary to hire an electrician!

Is the problem with the sound card?

If none of these diagnoses have been found to be correct, the problem may still come from a faulty sound card ... You still have to update the sound card drivers, and look for a solution on the manufacturer's site.
