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!
 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 |

OK, but I think the main reason to the question was do you have anything connected to the Mac? If you hear the buzz in headphones while absolutely nothing is connected to the Mac mini (no audio input device for example) there is unfortunately something wrong with your Mac. If the buzz is present only when something is connected it is most likely a ground loop (in spite of some contradicting opinions...).
I would like to hear if the buzz is still present while nothing is connected since I'm a professional musician considering the purchase of mini... |
