| I suspect that few of us use the internal speakers in our receivers very often -- I know I don't. However, I hate it when things do not work properly, even if I don't use them often. The voice coil in my RX340's internal speaker had been rubbing since day one, making it all but useless. I never bothered TT about it because the supplied speaker is a decidedly inferior part to begin with. | I suspect that few of us use the internal speakers in our receivers very often -- I know I don't.

| In a word, it is fantastic -- way better than I had hoped. It makes listening with the internal speaker a pleasure. I still won't do it much (generally only when I'm using the 340 to monitor a frequency while listening to another radio), but it's nice to know it works as it should. I used several short pieces of self-adhesive weatherstripping foam to prevent rattles from the speaker mounting screws contacting the top cover of the radio. | In a word, it is fantastic -- way better than I had hoped.

| - | Space permitting, this speaher should be an upgrade for most anything with a 4" square speaker. It would also be a good candidate for anyone building a DIY speaker for their radios. | + | Space permitting, this speaker should be an upgrade for most anything with a 4" square speaker.
