Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

 

I too have a problem with my B&O speakers.

When I bought my Pavillion just over a year ago, I immediately noticed that the speakers weren't as loud as laptops I've had in the past, but I wasn't overly concerned as this wasn't going to be a sound system.

However, after about 6-8 months or so, I noticed the sound quality deteriorate ever further.

 

I'm not 13 months in (coincidentally, 1 month past warranty) and the speakers are absolutelly terrible! Crackling, popping sounds, rattling casing because of them, and that's only at about 50% volume, which needless to say, makes my laptop even quiter now, as I can't really turn up the volume any farther as all that comes out is noise instead of the sound you want to hear.

Drivers have no updates.


I fell like I'm left with no recourse. 

Are they replacable? Can I swap them with something different (preferrably not B&O), are the fixable? Will HP offer me any warranty on this problem?
