AFAIK phone/laptop microspeakers need DSP to (among other things) sound good (see this video for a Macbook example) and I don’t think that Tangara’s CPU is powerful enough for this.

That's awesome! Thanks for that - I wasn't familiar with DSP, but sounds like that's absolutely how they are doing it. Phone speakers will work - but I your comment makes me feel that they will have a far worse sound quality than on an iPhone.

That might be a solution! If there's an EQ might be able to improve what's lost by not having apple's DSP.

Are there any spare GPIO pins by chance? Would be cool to write some Lua and add a menu entry to enable / disable a GPIO...
