About Our Speaker Repair Repair Service
Our MacBook Pro 16 (2021, M1 Max) speaker repairs start with a precise diagnostic to identify whether the issue lies with the speakers, the logic board amplifier, or the audio cable. Symptoms include crackling, no sound, stereo imbalance, or weak bass. We only fit high‑quality parts from trusted suppliers and we calibrate the audio output to match Apple performance, usually within 30–60 minutes in Preston.
During the repair, we replace damaged speakers or re‑flow connections, perform thorough acoustic and impedance testing, and re‑seat connectors. We verify the microphone path, left‑right balance, and system‑wide audio routing to prevent recurrence. All work is backed by a warranty and a transparent quote.

Expert Advice & Tips
Common causes of this issue:
Damage to the speaker unit, loose connectors, or amplifier faults can disrupt audio output.
Poor routing in software, OS updates, or corrupted audio caches may also produce crackling or no sound.
External factors such as moisture or impact can compromise internal traces.
Prevention tips:
Keep devices cool and out of direct sun; avoid overheating during long sessions.
Use a protective case and avoid dropping or banging the lid.
Regularly update macOS and audio apps to the latest versions.
Reset NVRAM/PRAM and SMC if you notice inconsistent volume or static.
Use official accessories where possible and avoid jamming third‑party dongles.
When to repair vs replace: Short intro: If the device is under warranty or the repair cost is far below replacement, repair first. If damage is extensive or the device is old, replacement might be wiser.
- Repair if the model is relatively recent and components are available at a sensible cost.
- Replace if the logic board or speaker array is badly damaged and repair cost would exceed 60‑75% of a new unit.
- Consider replacement if data migration is complex or the device has multiple failing subsystems.
What to look for in a quality repair service: Intro: Seek transparency, certification, and reliable parts.
- Clear upfront quotes with no hidden fees.
- 12‑month or longer warranty on repairs.
- Tested post‑repair with comprehensive audio checks.
- OEM‑grade parts where possible and proper calibration.
- Local, responsive support and quick turnaround.
Red flags to avoid: Intro: Don’t proceed with vague estimates or delayed testing.
- No warranty or vague coverage.
- Vague testing results or no proof of testing.
- Excessively long wait times or pushy sales tactics.
- Hidden fees or pressure to replace rather than repair.
Maintenance guidance after repair: Intro: Keep performance optimal with light, regular checks.
- Run regular audio tests after updates or app changes.
- Keep macOS up to date and back up data before major updates.
- Avoid exposing the device to moisture or extreme temperatures.
- Report any new symptoms promptly to prevent escalation.
What Our Customers Say
I spilled coffee on my MacBook Pro 16 and the speakers cut out. I popped into iRepair Guys Preston in the City Centre and was in and out within an hour. The sound came back perfectly and the price (£120) felt fair for top‑quality parts and a proper calibration. Much quicker and friendlier than any Apple visit I’ve had.
We rely on heavy laptops in the showroom, so the sound on our MacBooks is crucial. iRepair Guys came to our Fulwood office, replaced the speaker, and had everything back to normal within the same day. Reliable, honest pricing, and a business discount that actually helps our bottom line.
As a student, I’m always watching pennies. The £120 fix was straightforward, cheaper than a trip to Apple and faster too. They explained what was wrong and tested everything, including mic input and speakers. I’ll definitely use them again if I’m ever in a jam near Ashton-on-Ribble.
I sent my MacBook Pro to be repaired via their mail‑in option and was impressed with how smoothly it went. Clear updates, quick turnaround, and the repaired unit sounded perfect again. Great service for people in Ribbleton who don’t want to travel into Preston city centre.
We had three Macs in the office with speaker issues. They offered same‑day mobile repair and fixed all three on our premises in Penwortham. Competitive price, tidy install, and the staff knew exactly what they were doing—beats going to the Apple Store on any day.
Visited iRepair Guys Preston with a family MacBook and a spare device. They treated us like people, not a number, and the family discount helped a lot. Replacement speaker now sounds as good as new—plus the 12‑month warranty gives real peace of mind.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pricing & Value
Q:
How much does this repair cost?
For the Speaker Issue on a MacBook Pro 16 (2021, M1 Max), the price is £120. This includes diagnostic assessment, replacement of the faulty speaker with high‑quality parts, testing, and a quick calibration to ensure accurate sound. The total remains £120 with no hidden extras; if we discover a different fault requiring additional work, we’ll quote transparently before proceeding.
Q:
Why cheaper than Apple?
Apple Store often involves appointment queues, shipping repairs away from the store, and higher labour costs. At iRepair Guys Preston, we specialise in on‑site and quick‑turnaround fixes with carefully sourced parts and efficient workflows. This keeps our price lower while delivering the same‑ or better than Apple quality, plus a 12‑month warranty compared with Apple’s 90‑day benchmark.
Q:
Any hidden costs?
No. The £120 quote covers labour, replacement speaker parts, testing, and calibration. If a separate fault is found, we’ll explain it and provide a clear, written update before any extra work begins. Our transparent pricing helps you plan without surprises.
Q:
Payment plans or discounts?
We offer student discounts and business loyalty rates, plus occasional multi‑device promotions for homes and offices in Preston City Centre, Fulwood, Ashton-on-Ribble, Ribbleton, Penwortham, Longridge, Leyland, Chorley, and surrounding Lancashire areas. Payments can be made by card, cash, or bank transfer, whichever is most convenient for you.
Quality & Process
Q:
Parts quality?
We use high‑quality replacement speakers that meet or exceed OEM specifications where possible. Each part undergoes QA checks for impedance, frequency response, and acoustic performance. After installation, we run a calibration and a 14‑point audio test to ensure the sound is clean and balanced across all ranges.
Q:
How long does repair take?
Most speaker repairs for the MacBook Pro 16 are completed on the same day. Our Preston workshop typically completes the job within 30–60 minutes from drop‑off. We maintain a 95% same‑day repair rate, with updates if delays occur due to unusual fault conditions.
Q:
Will features work after? (Face ID, etc.)
Yes. The repair targets the speaker assembly. We verify all related functions, including microphone input and audio routing, and ensure no interference with other features like Face ID where applicable. Our testing confirms full system functionality post‑repair.
Q:
Success rate?
We’ve completed 5,000+ speaker repairs with a 98% success rate. Each repair undergoes a 14‑point QA process covering physical fit, acoustic output, signal integrity, and long‑term reliability before we hand the device back to you.

Q:

If the repaired speaker malfunctions within the warranty period, bring the device back and we’ll fix it under warranty. Our QA processes aim to prevent recurrence, and we’ll recheck related components to ensure the issue is fully resolved.
Q:

Our work does not void your Apple manufacturer warranty. We use appropriate parts and comply with best practices; you retain eligibility for remaining manufacturer coverage on other components not repaired.
Technical
Q:
Device-specific technical question
MacBook Pro 16 (2021, M1 Max) speaker failures can stem from driver wear, damaged cables, or a loose connector. We perform impedance checks, signal tests, and acoustic calibration to identify the exact fault and ensure the replacement part integrates with the system without impacting micro features.
Q:
What causes this issue?
Causes include accidental impact, dust ingress, moisture exposure, or long‑term wear. A full diagnostic checks the speaker path, audio ICs, and related cables to prevent future faults and confirm no secondary problems in the audio chain.
Q:
Repair or replace device?
Typically replacing the speaker is the most reliable fix. If other components show signs of failure or the device has multiple issues, we’ll provide an honest recommendation on whether repair or replacement is more cost‑effective.
Q:
Fix multiple issues?
Yes. We offer multi‑repair discounts when addressing several problems in a single visit. For instance, if the MacBook Pro requires both a speaker replacement and a microphone fix, we’ll provide a bundled quote and complete both in one appointment to minimise downtime.
