Its been suggested, ( hello by the way ) I use a phantom center in my audio stereo / ht build,
Wanted to heck, if anyone has done a internal tv driver upgrade.
Is this a mod worth the effort.
Thanks
brian.

Why bother? A tiny speaker in a bad plastic cabinet?Quote:

When there's budget stuff like this available:

tweaking tv speakers would be a complete waste of energy and time.
(association? No. Heard them? Yes... I'm sure there are other such options)
I dont always use the external audio, so looking for some tweeks.
Sell your TV and buy a better one. ;-)Quote:

Fortunately the TV also had a three band EQ in it's settings, so I was able to turn the bass and treble way down to make it sound more like a typical TV. My new TV doesn't have speaker outputs, I don't miss them much.
Use the external audio, the factory speakers were not made for fidelity. Or use headphones.Quote:
