I reporpused the iMac as an external display but the speakers make like a wind sound also like some beeps, found a post on reddit saying that its bakcground noise and that turning down the volume can solve, I did and the sound doesnt dissapear its still pretty loud . What else can I do? could it be a wiring problem? I connected the brown and black to the - and the grey ones to the +.
Is dit een goede vraag?

Was dit antwoord nuttig?
Maybe I didn't not explain well. The iMac is not an iMac anymore it's just a screen I removed everything except the speakers and the screen and I bought a display controller so the screen can have video from an HDMI, the screen is now working but the speakers no, to make the speakers work I bought an amplifier and connected the speakers to it
@gerardit Then it sounds like a problem with the amplifier. What brand and model amplifier?
It's this one:

If you can capture the sound and if there is a pattern it can be easier to diagnose.
If you feel comfortable with opening it you can follow this guide to get inside the unit
