Just wanted to post that I orded those speakers from that dx.com. They sent me different speakers than what the picture showed. They had tabs instead of being round. I opened a ticket. They asked me for pics of speakers and front and back of envelope they came in. Then they asked me for close up pics of the barcodes on the enevelope. Now they want close up pics of the barcode that was on the bubble wrap the speakers came in inside the envelope which you had to rip apart because they used that to close the bubble wrap. I finally said to hell with it and told them forget it I'm done.
Horrible experience full of incompetence. I'm done w/that place.
Yea modded lol. I don't have any intentions on selling it. I just want it all working properly is all.
It is still a broken system if the speaker doesn't work. It's not that I will play it but in the event I ever wanted to sell it the fact that speaker don't work would drastically kill the resale value.
I havn't purchased anything yet. On that link you posted it said dimensions were 1.02 in x 0.79 in x 0.08 in. If that diameter is larger than about 7/8" or roughly 22mm it will be too big.
Shipping for a broken system would cost more than a speaker is worth. I'll just buy two psp speakers from hong kong for $2.50.
Thanks for the interest. Since I'm cheap I guess i will have to wait 3-4 weeks.
I'm not looking to sell any of my gameboys. I collect games/systems. I just want to fix the broken one. It is only 2 wires that need soldered to a new speaker. It does require a triangle bit to open the systems which I just got in the mail just having a hard time locating a replacement speaker.The problem is the diameter has to be like 7/8" or smaller to fit under the board into the designated location. I can get the psp speaker but thats another hong kong purchase and I'm sick of waiting 3-4 weeks for stuff.
I'm not going to destroy a perfectly working GBC for a $2 speaker. I am also not willing to buy a broken unit for a speaker. I guess I'll just buy a psp 1000 replacemnt speaker and give it a shot.
Hey guys I have a special pokemon GBC and the speaker is dead. The headphone jack works but not the speaker. I am having a very hard time locating a speaker to use. I went to radio shack but the one they have is 1 1/8" or 29mm and the one in the system is more like 7/8 or 22mm. Any help on what to use would be great. I have read someone used a psp speaker that makes it louder which I could try but which model? If there is something out there that gets louder sound that would be cool since it needs replaced anyhow. Thanks in advance.
