Anyone tried installing LC575 speaker in Color Classic?

[Marconelly]

I've seen a video where someone briefly touched on this subject, saying that you can take the speaker out of LC575 and put it very easily into Color Classic. There's even a factory built spot for this speaker, with perforations, clips and everything. He says the LC575 speaker sounds much better in CC than the stock speaker, and wonder why Apple didn't go through with this, clearly originally planned design, and instead placed a smaller speaker at the back of the computer.

As I have an LC575 that I can strip for parts, I was thinking of doing this. Only thing is, I can see that Apple's possible reason for not placing this speaker in CC was that in such a location it maybe could interfere with the CRT beam? But speakers are in that same location in LC575 also, and they don't seem to interfere.

One thing about this video is that it doesn't really show many steps for doing this, just broad strokes for what needs to be done, and it completely skips showing how to get the speakers out of LC575. Maybe a nice idea for @JDW video, assuming this has any advantages over doing the stereo mod he already did a video on (I believe this would be easier to do, and maybe the bigger speaker just sounds better than even two smaller speakers?)

Here's a video timestamped to where he talks about this (8:34):

Fascinating.

So basically he removed a speaker from his 575 and put that into the front UNDERSIDE of the Color Classic like this...

If you have only the single stock speaker, that is a really neat idea.

Of course, I have Stereo Mod which uses another one of the stock speakers to make the stereo pair. So if you use two speakers from the LC575 and put them in the bottom front, you'd likely need to do some literal "plastic surgery" (ha ha) to make them fit right. Even so, you may not get the best stereo separation with them both firing downward onto your desk. With the normal stereo mod, the speakers aren't great , but each fires out their respective sides, so you can hear some stereo separation.

But thank you for sharing because I would have never suspected that mod would be inside a video entitled "Building a POWER Mystic Color Classic with a Daystar 601 PPC Upgrade Card".
