1.	Solve : When i plug my headphone sound quality drops?
Answer» Hey so heres the deal, I have a Lenovo Y550P and i never had a sound problem but minutes ago i realized that when i plugged the headphones in the sound quality dropped very very low, what should i do, cause i always use the laptop with headphones plugged, please please help meeeeeeeeeeee, its not a problem with the headphones cause i tried SEVERAL ones and they all have the same problemmm, Thanks very much, MarcDefine "very very low" quality. Is it crackling? Static? Signal loss? Is the quality ok with just the laptop speakers? With the headphones plugged in, try (very gently) rotating the plug in the jack. Does it crackle or change when you do this? If you've tried more than one pair of headphones, it's possible the jack itself is damaged. This can HAPPEN over time. It can also happen if the plug its knocked too hard while plugged in, causing it to damage the jack. Certainly wouldn't be the first time I've seen that with a laptop.its like a bit crackling and for example when i listen to a song or play a GAME the voices are very low and the rest is much louderYou only answered the first question.
