On my Macbook the sound has to get to about the 6th white notch on the sound pop up that comes onto the screen untill I start to hear something. Is this common on MacBooks?

Is this ANY sounds or just iTunes? If the latter, try turning it's volume up.

It takes me at least 6 presses of the sound up button on the keyboard going from mute untill I start to hear anything, and this is with itunes turned up to its maximum.
Surely I should here something on the first press of the sound button (going from mute - up) if itunes is turned up to its maximum volume?

mine is the same.

the apple discussion boards are a very useful tool...

ie:
"To be fair, it's not the speakers that are bad, it's the software that drives them. Apple seems to have limited the volume output on them. The speakers work great as soon as you are in XP with BootCamp."

if it's been bought by your bro to make music on, it's really a good idea to get a good set of cans, rather than rely on the speakers of any laptop, or desktop for that matter.

Yeah he has a good set of speakers but even at that =, no sound comes out of the Macbook untill the volume on it gets to half way. Is this the same on all Macbooks if you have one?
