PC speakers are necessary for every computer! Setting them up is usually pretty simple and easy, however, there are some common problems that some consumers are known to come across after they buy their speakers! Here's a list of them, as well as some very useful tips on how to avoid them!

• There is no sound: If there is no sound coming from your PC speakers, then the first thing you should do is check if they are plugged into the right port or jack! Sound boards nowadays come with many ports and jacks, so it's not uncommon even for experienced users to plug their speakers into the wrong one by mistake! You should plug them in the jack marked either "speakers" or "headphone"! If you still aren't getting any sound, then check if your speakers are plugged in a power outlet or if their batteries haven't run out!

• The speakers are not loud enough: If you think that your PC speaker system is too quiet, the first thing you need to do, is check their volume controls! You might need to turn the volume up a bit! If however the volume has already been set on a high level, then check the volume controls of your PC! Where you will find them, depends on your OS! If you are using Windows, go into "control panel" and look for the sound control icon! If that doesn't work either, then you should download and install new drivers for your sound board!

• I can't figure out where to plug my speakers on my PC. Well not all PCs come equipped with sound boards, so the first thing you need to know before buying PC speakers, is whether your PC actually has a sound board! If it does, then the jacks and ports of the sound board will definitely be on the rear side of your computer! What you should be looking for is a standard headphone jack!

• The sound quality is really bad: The most common reason behind bad PC speakers performance, is the lack of updated drivers for your computer's sound board! The first thing you should do then, is find, download and install the latest drivers! If you have a surround sound system, then you might have made some mistakes while connecting your speakers! Check the manual and repeat the connection process!

• My wireless speakers are crackling constantly: Wireless PC speakers can greatly help you reduce the clutter of cables in your room! But if you place them too far away from their transmitter or there are a lot of things obstructing the transmitter's signal, then you will hear audible "hissing" and cracking! Just move them closer to the transmitter!
