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

an lcd, ah well they don't cause noises so that's not it.

Maybe the screening on the mac is not as good as it could be.
i wonder if the jack out is impedance matching like ibooks etc.

remember, always leave the mac volume up.

Call applecare, or check the apple website support for any discussions on the mac mini if it's common to mini's there'll be others in your boat!
