The dragonfly most likely will provide better sound, but it also seems as though you have dirty or damaged headphone jack on the laptop. Cleaning could help, but it's also possible reasonably the noise you are hearing is from an intermittent connection at the headphone jack. Those little 1/8" jacks are easily damaged, especially if you've used the headphones much and stressed that connection by yanking, pulling, tripping over, whatever, the headphone cable.
RUNNING POWERED SPEAKERS FROM AN IMAC
Hello all:
What am I missing here? How would I go about using my powered speakers, Kantos i pair 5's with my iMac? They have s video and rca jacks etc. but the iMac has only a headphone jack and usb ports. Is there a way to do this? I no longer need these speakers in a home office and would love to repurpose them in the computer room.
Thanks for any suggestions!
