My speaker problem from a few months back, fixed. I found a set of speakers at Fry's for $25 last week I was seriously about to get, so I decided to take a really close look at my old bad speaker first. I was going to see if there was any saving it up to destroying the housing - I found a black screw that blended into the housing and the ( Read more... ) -
