My speakers have been making popping sounds pretty much since I bought the machine. It happens randomly, not sure what's triggering it. Is there any fix for this? It's really annoying.

Year and model of your MacBook? Version of macOS installed? What software is being used to generate sounds from the speakers? Are you referring to built-in speakers or external speakers? Need a lot more information and details, my friend.

Actually, I just did a test with headphones, and it seems like the popping is happening there too but it's less of a pop and more of a quieter distortion.
