Check to see if your sound card is working properly and compatible with your computer. Go to My Computer, click Properties and then Device Manager and there will be a yellow sign to show if sound card isn't working.

What causes popping sound from audio receiver speakers it pops when you change channels on tv and it pops when you shut the receiver off have optical cables feeding the avr from the cable box and DVD?

A loud pop in the speakers is one of two things. 1. DC voltage from the amp instead of the normal AC. (If this is the case the amp is slowly burning the voice coils of the speakers.) 2. a large spike to the input of the amp from the cable box (this would be less common, but possible.) In either case the protection circuit of the amp should trip and this should never get to the speakers. The cause is not an ac problem from the wall. The problem is probably in the amp itself. Do yourself a favor and get a stereo tech check it out or get a new system. But if you let it continue you will not have any speakers.


Why does your speakers vibrate when it is to loud?

Because you have them too loud. It will ruin your speakers if you keep it up. Actually, they always vibrate - it is the conversion of electrical signals to sound waves that causes the cone of a speaker to move back and forth rapidly, creating the sound wave that we hear. If the vibrate is more of a 'buzz', then the speakers are being pushed beyond their capacity, and will fail, as the original poster noted. Sound IS vibration. The sound waves hit your ear, and they cause your ear muscles to vibrate back and forth, and small organs convert this physical movement back into electrical energy which your brain then recognizes as sound. Sound can not travel in a vaccuum, it needs air or another medium to travel through.
