laptop speakers tend to be shit, and mine are about the worst available. unfortunately due to size constraints, there's not really a drop-in solution, so I was thinking I'd instead remove them, and use the free space for an inline headphone amp. I could potentially make my own amp (there are plenty of plans around, and components aren't all that expensive), or buy a decent low-end amp/dac like the Fiio E11, strip it and mount it in the case...
unfortunately I might not have enough space for even a custom amp unless I make the pcb a very specific size, but I figured it was an interesting idea. any thoughts?
