This, of course, raises a small problem. How does one actually test it without speakers? Well, it's got a headphone jack. And I've got a pair of cheap giveaway airline headphones handy.... So I plugged in the headphones, put a CD of Mannheim Steamroller into the changer, and cranked it up a bit. And it's actually about the right volume to listen to.
The right volume to listen to ... in the room.
So I sat the headphones on the desk, and listened to it for a while, until the tinniness started to drive
So, yeah, before I plug the speakers in, I think I'll turn it back down. To eleven.
