Introduction

This guide will demonstrate the process of removing the speakers for the Acer Chromebook CB0311-1H-C1MX. The speakers are responsible for properly playing sound from the device. If the laptop is not playing sound at the proper volume or quality, then replacing the speakers might resolve the issue.
