  28. Speakers are meant for sounds ! Hence I’d install a better speaker driver which would enhance an overall sound stage and would remove th usb port these days everyone has smart phone’s one can control/play tracks via phone itself.

  37. Nice one 🙂 One feature I can replace with by taking out another from the SoundDrum1 is adding a small retractable antennae for picking up FM Radio signal and removing.. rather replacing 10W with either 5W or 15W output. On a sarcastic note, Dear SS, you are too rich to test the FM reception quality – lot of people listen to FM – so consider testing this feature too. Thanks !!

    • I would like to remove USB feature because practically thinking to gain higher speeds on USB I have kept USB3.1 drives and it seemed more worthy If I bought them at around 128GB and wo FAT32 support nahi karte hai. So, I would remove the USB feature to get much more clearer and a bit bassy audio at even higher volumes.
