Hi All:
Wondering whether anyone here has experience of the newer, 2018
generation Mac Mini. I'm particularly interested in the builtin speaker.
Is it adequate for Voice Over use? Is the volume and sound quality
adequate for TTS? Where is the speaker located on the unit physically?
Thanks in adva
Hi Dave,

Hi everybody. Mark gave me permission to post this to the list.
Like a lot of people, I'm in a tough spot due to the corona virus
shutdown for a couple of reasons. My older iMac is holding up fine so
I'd like to find a new home for my MacBook pro and Apple watch. They

The speaker is great for VoiceOver and basic audio. It’s pretty clear and
loud. However, if you are going to listen to music or videos, you are probably
better off adding some kind of speaker. I got a display that has the built in
speakers which Apple recommends.

I use my local County Library system to find digital audio books. Once I borrow
them, I use Overdrive to do the actual downloading of the MP3 format files.
Then I process them with Audio Book Binder to create the M4B book files that I
sync to my iPhone. Seems like a lot of steps at first, but th
Donna,
Forgot the obvious. I also borrow audio books in physical audio CD format. I
rip them down to MP3 files and then process as previously mentioned.

And lastly I do not share these M4B books with anyone, since they are

in.

Hi,
I have a 2018 mac mini and the sound is just fine for speech. I usually
just put the sound all the way up but even with that it works fine. If
not, there is a headset jack whare you could plugin a cheep speaker if
need be, but I find the sound quility HTH.

Thanks, Dave. This is fascinating. I have to say that I haven't seen an audio
book on a physical CD in years. Brings back a lot of memories of long car
trips. :) I get my books from Bookshare, Bard, or Apple Books and Kindle, so
have never bothered using the Overdrive system, but I'm surprised t
Hi!
I don’t have experience on the 2018 Mac mini but i think the look really the
same likewise the older and the 2020 Mac mini.
The speaker on my Old mac mini is really good so i guess its much better on the
newer model.

Hi,
I also have a 2018 year mac mini and I love it.
As far as the speaker, at first when I got it, it was kind of crackely. Then
after a software pdate, the problem went away.
I also have installed windows 10 onn it. In windows, the speaker really
stuttered. But I read that that was also a proble

I have a 2012 Mac mini, and I find the internal speaker completely inadequate
for regular use with VoiceOver or anything else. I have looked at the 2018 Mac
mini, and it doesn’t seem any different.. The speaker’s opening in in the back
below the peripheral connectors and sounds like it is buri
It is quite good for the voice range and music is like with a small radio.
If you want it for fuller music sound the mini jack allows an external speaker
or the blutooth for a compatible speaker.
