A1502 MacBook has weird sound.
Hello everyone! So basically any sounds ( including the startup chime) this MacBook makes are corrupted (as shown on the video). It started for no particular reason.
Is this a good question?

The speakers are blown! You’ll need to see if you can isolate out if only one is damaged or both. Use the sound controller balance control to bias the music to the left or the right. The side that sounds off is the speaker that needs replacing. Sometimes both need to be replaced.

@artur0626 - Does it sound OK via headphones or external speaker plugged in or via bluetooth?
