Columns are ringing: reasons and what to do?

Columns are quite an important attribute for various occasions - it can be either watching a movie or a serious gala event. And what is the festive atmosphere without normal musical accompaniment? But sometimes a situation may arise when the speakers begin to whistle or wheeze - phoning. Why is this happening?

Absolutely any speakers can start phoning, not necessarily just connected, while this can happen suddenly, for no apparent reason. But you should not immediately run to the service center, sometimes a strong and unpleasant sound can be eliminated with your own hands. To do this, you need to find out the cause of the problem, there may be several of them.

• Problems in the wires. In some cases, the speakers are completely functional, and the sound arises from the wires that are connected to them. If the speaker starts to hum, check the integrity of the wiring and the correctness of the USB cable connection.

• Sometimes the problems start from the amplifier or equalizer, this happens due to a failure in their settings, usually in this case, the background of a working generator is heard from the speakers.

• Improper equipment grounding or none at all.

• Moving and incorrect placement of the microphone in relation to the speakers. It is from the microphone that the sound distortions in the speakers most often occur, so first check this reason.

• The reason may be incorrect connection settings, failure on the PC.

• Well, or is it just a breakdown of the speakers themselves, malfunction in some items.

Most speakers (especially budget speakers) do not have good noise immunity, so you need to place them away from power cables, antennas, outlets, and any devices that may cause interference. Perhaps after using this advice, the problem with sound defects will disappear.

Not all of the listed reasons can be eliminated on your own, even if you correctly identified the type of breakdown. You can correct the situation yourself only in a few cases. If the speakers are buzzing due to the microphone. In this case, you can simply change the location of this or that item. But it is worth considering the fact that not all types of microphones and speakers go well with each other, you may need to change some of these.

Quite often, extraneous noise from the speakers occurs due to the fact that some components of your PC are simply outdated. In this case, you will have to reinstall the drivers. For people who are at an intermediate level versed in computers, this will not be difficult. This can be done in a few steps.

• First you need to click on "Start" and select "Control Panel".
• Then you need to find "Device Manager", if you can't do this right away, use the search function, which is located in the upper right corner of the open menu.
• Next, you need to enter the "Game and Sound Devices".
• After that, you need to find the device you want, right-click on it and update the driver.

If the speaker starts working normally when reconnecting, then the problem is in the settings. This can be corrected as follows.

• We open all the same "Control Panel".
• Find the "Sound" icon.
• In the "Playback" tab, select the desired device and use the right mouse button to open its properties. There we adjust the sound, adjusting it to a comfortable one. We check the sound quality from time to time until we get what we want.

It is difficult to find this problem, since usually they try to hide all the wiring from the speakers somewhere so that it does not interfere.... If, after the first two steps, it was not possible to remove the sounds, then it is necessary to check the integrity and serviceability of the cables that connect the equipment. If you do not understand electrics, then you cannot solve this problem on your own, however, you will not have to overpay for additional diagnostics of the acoustic devices themselves, but it will be enough to give the connection cables to the specialist or buy new ones.

In all other cases, you can hardly get rid of the problem with your own hands, therefore it is better to call a master or take the speakers to a service center, perhaps the fault is in them. Otherwise, you will only aggravate the situation and spoil the speakers even more.

In order to quickly identify the cause of the problem, you need to know the type of speaker: is it wired or works via Bluetooth, since each of this type has characteristic problem areas that will need to be checked first.

• Wired. These speakers are much less likely to break, so in this case, the reason most likely lies in incorrect settings on the computer, or the wires are simply faulty.

• Wireless. Here, the reason is usually in the column itself. Be sure to check the speaker for damage and external defects, if they are not there, then the problem is inside the device, and it will be possible to eliminate the unpleasant sound only in a special service.

Of course, absolutely everything cannot be foreseen, but in most cases, sound problems arise precisely because of physical reasons, which are best eliminated by a master... However, you shouldn't discount incorrect settings and outdated drivers.
