For some of us, our MacBook is our most prized possession. We rely on it to get work done at home or on the go, as well as roam the Internet, shop online, and socialize with family and friends (via FaceTime and Facebook/IG). Moreso, we value it as a stereo system to hear and enjoy our favorite media: music, movies, podcasts, video games, etc. There’s just one gripe: the sound on Apple’s laptops could be a lot better.
The speakers on current MacBooks are impressive. Also, the AirPods Pro 2 and AirPods Max deliver high-quality wireless sound, though their sonic capabilities are limited to within Apple’s ecosystem. For instance, the Apple Lossless Audio Codec (ALAC), which is the company’s newest lossless, hi-resolution sound technology, isn’t even supported by any AirPods model. Many of the best wireless headphones and best wireless earbuds won’t get you lossless audio on a MacBook either.
