Hey everyone,
I had a problem with my WII2HDMI Adapter from Portholic. Its a great adapter and the quality of image is superb. Even component cant compare (I have wii component and they are good, but hdmi is way better still).
The only problem was that Audio sucked in some instances.
A reproduceable example is GC Twilight Princess, whenever you Warp. The audio crackles and distorts every time.
A solution is to insert headphones into the audio cinch 3.5mm of the portholic WII2HDMI port.
The HDMI sounds gets more quiet, but you can just turn up the volume on the TV. The audio doesnt crackle anymore.
Now instead of always having a pair of headphones behind my WII, I took a 3.5mm cinch end piece and connected 22ohm (2x) resistors to it.
Normal phone headphones are between 20-40ohm resistance, so that is about the same.
It works well. I added a picture if anyone is interested what I did.
Hope that helps others that are in a similiar situation. The audio crackling in Gamecube games was super annoying.
