    Hi everyone. I've got a HP Envy 17 (3002ea) and I've noticed that when I have the Beats Audio enabled, turning the volume up to more than ~40% causes an odd tinny noise to be produced along with the audio.

    I tried doing a forum search but didn't see any posts relating to this so I thought I'd ask. Oddly enough, the problem disappears when I untick the 'Beats Audio' checkbox in the Beats Menu, so perhaps its software related?

    I was hoping someone would be able to shed some light on the issue. Thanks.
