Abnormal crackling sound from speakers

Check and replace its audio output IC.

The speakers that are inside your tv are damaged and needs to be replaced, after you replace your speakers, the Sound will return at the correct factory settings from which you received your tv..

you must check first the audio speaker if worn out. if ok at this time you will need to check weather the amplifier ic get burnt.

If the sound FLUCTUATES up & down, try turning off the AutoVolume in the sound menu. You didn't say if it's one or all speakers crackling. Crackling is either a speaker or circuitry issue. Adjust the balance away from the speaker that crackles, if it stops, that speaker is probably "fried". If it still crackles, I'd turn off the speakers and run the sound thru a stereo for the quick, cheap fix. My Samsung (10+ years old to be fair) crackles due to a circuit issue but if I SMACK the left side speaker (behind which is the sound board and side panel connectors) it stops for a while. Maddening. I think I broke it squeezing it into the furniture it's in, pressing on the protruding RCA plugs. Dumb design.

I'm sure you have figured this one out. TV itself is causing the problems.
The circuit board that produces the audio signal seems to be the problem.
Before you call the repairman, go to the web site Shopjimmy.com just to get an idea of what the parts will cost. That way he doesn't rip you off.

I hope I answered your question correctly. Please rate me. :)

From the speakers or from the inside of the unit. On all modes, eg. normal tv + digibox/scart input???

First thing would be to change the speaker. look at the back of the speaker and it will have 4 or 8 ohm rating replace with one of the same ohm and size from Radio shack. around $6 -
$9 if the sound still is a problem it will be the audio output IC

I just bought a used 60 inch rear projection tv. The picture is fine except I have a crackling sound coming from the front of the tv also. What's the deal?

Dust does cause some problems but not this mabe bad audio ic or bad speakers or capacitor near audio ic or bad tuner could cause this sorry for so many suggestions I oun a video repair shop i gave you all the things it could be



Thanks Doctor video

It sounds to me as if possibly ya Main IC Amp Chip & OR the Output Capacitors are failing... Sometimes it is a sign of a power supply on it's way out... Either way it's time for a repair shop quote. Either that or it may be the speakers crossovers... to check this, if you can, try another set of speaker... see if problem is still there. If it IS, then it IS most probably as I said above.. If NOT then it may be one or both of the "Crossover Network" in each speaker...
