Look into the Hardware Issue
No amount of troubleshooting will help if there is a deep-lying hardware issue in your TV’s speakers. To figure that out, you need to dismantle your TV, which we personally won’t suggest unless you are a specialist. We recommend you go to the nearest Hisense TV service center and figure out the issue with the help of experts. If a speaker replacement is all that is needed, go for it without a second thought.
