Hola everyone!
I picked up a nice condition Graphite slot loading G3 iMac last week and so far everything has been really great with it. Replaced the dead IDE harddrive with a StarTech IDE2SATA adapter and 120GB SSD. Replaced the PRAM battery while in there. Zero leakage of the batteries or caps.
My question: is it normal for the speakers on this to be stupid loud? Literally the lowest volume (one click above mute) is still really loud and it only gets even louder from there. This can't possibly be normal, can it?
Fresh install of Mac OS 9.2.2
Updated firmware to 4.19
Reset PRAM
Reset NVRAM
I haven't tried 8.6 to see if it behaves differently and I'm not interested in installing OS X on it (unless I need to).
Thank god the Harmon Kardon speakers on this iMac are in great shape because it's audio is really loud. Like living room filling loud.
Ideas?
