Hi again. I have an update. After a lot of testing, I discovered that this annoying issue comes from the KEYBOARD. Basically, the keys are resonating to certain frequencies such as human voice on zoom, which produces this horrible crackling. I have the standard keyboard. Do people with the CherryMX keyboard experience the same issue please?
Hello, I have received a x17 R2 with what is apparently an extremely common build defect: the left-hand internal speaker is vibrating against something, which makes a crackling noise on certain sound frequency bands at mid to high volume. A Dell technician came today and installed new speakers, but the issue persists (albeit with a marginal improvement). Should I ask for a replacement machine? Is there a known fix that really works for this issue? Do all x17 R2 machines have this defect? Thanks!
