General - the reason you are reading this guide may well be that you blew you speakers after installing 'Boom' from the App Store.

All I can say is, don't install it a second time!

Others, be warned! If you use Boom, just use it at the lowest volume you can. Looks like they don't replace speakers.

Or better, don't install it at all.

Stuart.
