Hey that button cell on the logic board, will it need replaced? I can’t find info here nor OWC about changing it. I will be going in for upgrades, just picked one of these iMacs up, since I’m going in, don’t want to have to go in again if I don’t have to.
I’m with you on this…seeing how well this is constructed, tightened and sealed up to prevent the many vibrations from loosening things up, that, if not done that way, could easily have caused this to make vibration noises or break over time. This is some pretty ingenious engineering —hardware, and, from what I’ve read, software — if I could, I’d run out and buy a couple of these right now!
“It does seem like they’re down firing out of the bottom. It’s just odd there’s so much “transparent mesh” all through the sides of the speaker and no sound actually coming from the sides.“
that is for the microphones…see the holes around the outside of the cylinder?
