    Well I just had my speakers exchanged. But these do again have some horrible sound once you turn them up a little.

    Could you guys watch this youtube Video, with the Sound of your computer set to 60% and tell me if your Sound gets messed up when the guy talks?


    This happens to me on the right site only. Even if I turn the right speaker off I can hear some weird sound. Maybe some parts inside are moving because of the vibration?

    Cheers

    my rights speaker on both my sxps 13's sucks, it vibrates at any louder than 70% volume.. taking the machine apart and putting thin foam around the edges on the speaker can help minimize the vibrating, but overall they are just crap tiny speakers.

    most of the time i just balance the sounds to the other speaker more

    also make sure the dell sounds drivers are installed; they seam to help alot on the sound quality (possible built in driver eq? sounds enhancments?)

    Other than the sound distortions at higher volumes (which is expected), I don't have any problems with my speakers.
