[QUOTE="Michael415, post: 748122, member: 22754"] Chink in your theory its a specific brand of hd at least. Mine is a Hitachi brand and the signal out is not pristine. Mine doesn't sound as dramatic as the OP though. You could be onto something that the hd (any of them) in such a close proximity cause interference. If your waiting for a fix I think it will be a very long time because going all the way back to my PPC mbp the audio out hasn't been great. I don't think its much of a priority for apple. Perhaps the optical out is much cleaner, never tried it so I cannot comment on it. What brand/model headphones are you using with your mbp? And I am not trying to be difficult but when you say you hear noise what exactly are you hearing? Just background static or actual random tones, etc? [/QUOTE]
