I'm a first-time Mac user, and first-time poster on this site. After spending way too many years fighting Windows PC's, I finally made the switch and picked up a $599 Mac Mini w/512MB of RAM. As I've heard many say before, I'll never go back, I'm already a Mac fanatic after two weeks! biggrin.gif I love everything about the Mac, especially Garageband, however, I'm getting a buzz when my speakers are plugged into the headphone jack. I've tried several sets of speakers, with the same result. If I keep the volume of the speakers very low, I can't hear the buzz, but I have to max out the Macs volume, and sometimes it's not quite loud enough. It's frustrating because I have a Creative 2.1 system with subwoofer, but I can't cut it loose on my tunes. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks.
JBeat

you have to be kidding me.... if it wasn't making noise before he got the mac mini then why would it be a ground loop now?

i have had four G5's replaced by apple because there power supply's could not pull the load. they tried to contribute it to a ground loop, but that wasn't the problem. it was faulty powersupplies. this is why i am asking if he had the problem before the mac mini. possibly apple is still making crappy power supplies. which would contribute to the noise. it would contribute to noise coming from the speakers because you would hear the power supply buzzing and whining when extra load is put on it.
