A2115 / 2019 / Processors from 3.0 GHz 6-core i5, up to 3.6 GHz 8-core i9. Released March 19, 2019.

Microphone very muffled after sealing up iMac

I’m wondering if the microphone issue having to do with the placement of the adhesive strips is the same on the 27-inch model. It would be great to know before I reopen my iMac.

after Upgrading my iMac 2019 the microfon did not work

Update (06/15/2020)

I just wanted to follow up and confirm with a picture. Here’s the interior edge of the 2019 5k iMac.

Yes! the small slit the microphone sits behind can be blocked by the adhesive tape if you are not careful!

And do yourself a favor and not mistake the model of the seal set, A1419, for the year indicator and buy the wrong seal set. That seal set DOES cover microphone. A1419 is NOT the correct seal set for this computer.

The 2012-2019 iMac adhesive strips have a microphone cutout and are numbered 16, 21, 22, 23, 25, and 26. They can be used on 27" iMacs from 2012-2019.

If your strips are numbered 11-16 you have the wrong set.
