## Description

Review: Perfect speaker replacement for Clock movement electric chime. - This was a perfect replacement for a blown mini speaker in my wall mounted clock. Every time it tried to play Westminster, it made clicking noises instead of a melody. Replaced the old speaker with this Adafruit Mini Metal Speaker and now it works like brand new, sounds a tad quieter which is perfect, but smooth and sounds good (old speaker was .25Watt), this speaker is .5watt.
Review: Works as a replacement for Philips SCD630 - Speaker sounds great and is the same size as the one used in the Philips SCD630 baby monitor; therefore if your speaker gets damaged and sounds really distorted you can open it up, remove the speaker clip and old speaker, cut the clip wire and solder this one on in its place. Much better than e-waste.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: can I directly connect it to 3.5mm audio jack? or should I have a capacitor in between? the sound is very very low right now.**
A: You'll need to incorporate a LM386 operational amplifier. Google search "lm386 audio amplifier circuit diagrams", test one out on a breadboard, and change capacitor and resistor values until you find the sound you like.

**Q: How can you tell which are the positive and negative wires? Picture shows both as white**
A: I don’t believe it makes a difference

**Q: is there a positive/negative wire? or it doesn't matter?**
A: Doesn’t matter

**Q: I wonder if it fits nicely in a gba sp, or a nintendo ds lite ?**
A: It fits perfectly

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Escort Radar Detector Speaker Replacement!!
*by P***E on October 27, 2022*

The sound randomly went out on my Escort 9500xi. This is a perfect fit and direct replacement, with one exception. You have to solder the plug with red and black wire which literally takes less than a minute. Works perfectly sound is exactly the same and the specs are identical to the speaker that came out. 8ohm .5v
