Apple Mac Book Pro Speaker Freq

Get SleepPhones? This way you can listen to the sub while you're asleep, even if your speakers doesn't quite qualify.

Thank you for replying. I had tried sleep phones but they caused a lot of soreness to my ears so had to return them. I have bought speakers which I have around my bed and these are 20khz, but the problem was that either I wasn't able to get 8hrs sleep due to late nights and early starts or that my mp3 which is a small portable mp3 would die or power or sometimes I would be so tired and fall asleep before setting the speakers and mp3 on. The mp3 only have a power of about 20hrs I think so I cannot leave them on 24/7. I would have to unplug, charge then plug in and reset the volume etc. It was more hassle than ease to be honest.

That doesn't mean I have given up but if my mac book pro can play silent tracks and that is why I hope you and others can answer this for me, then it will be terrific in allowing me to make up 8hours a day easily for sure!

Im sure you will get some effect from the mac speakers but i doubt you will be getting the full exposure, at a guess 70-80% but even then I have no real idea - it could be better it could be worse but some is better than none.

The fact apple quoted 10Hz-20kHz is not good, there is no way they go down to 10hz, maybe he meant 100Hz? I don't doubt they can hit 20khz, most speakers can.

But if the pressing play on a mp3 every night and keeping it charged is too much hassle, then why will keeping a mac charged and MP3 playing be any less hassle, especially if you always going to be mobile? in that case why not listen to a masked sub using an mp3 player? OR are you planning on using the US in lectures or class where you cant have earphones on?

My suggestion is to be more disciplined and sort your nightly subs, then make the rest up with the mac. You could always use the mac with the speakers instead of the MP3 player?
