My first Apple II was acquired in October 2023. Being a Mac guy since 1984, I was accustomed to "good audio." There was nothing about any Macintosh I ever used that made me think, "Wow, this audio is bad!" But when I first tested the IIc with music and gaming apps, I was really quite shocked...
Making this video was a learning experience. Despite asking many people for advice and watching YouTube videos on the subject, I still had trouble with the Speaker install, but ultimately I got it locked-in with hot glue.
I love using IIc Drop-to-Open technique that Javier Rivera taught me...
