    So after the last couple years in school, my speakers are shot. I have an inspiron 1720 and was wondering how hard it is to change out the speakers. I was looking around and found these: http://www.parts-people.com/index.php?action=item&id=4807. I looked through the manual and couldnt find a tutorial on how to change the speakers or get to them or anything. Just wondering if anyones done this before and could let me know if its something i can do or not. Thanks in advance

    If I remember correctly they are in the base. If you pull off the monitor and palmwrest they should be right there. There's one or two screws that have to come out along with the connectors to the motherboard.

    Parts-people.com is pretty much as legit as it gets. I've ordered several parts from them before.
