Phil - you might try loosening and retightening the four screws holding the speaker to the top cover. If you even slightly over-tighten, you can cause distortion to the speaker frame which could cause audio distortion and low audio output. You want to get them just tight enough to not come lose and NO MORE... it's very easy to distort the speaker frame.
