    Default Looking for Neo Geo Pocket Color Replacement Speaker

    Does anyone stock an equivalent Neo Geo Pocket Color speaker? I have a NGPC that is missing the speaker. As in, it looks like someone opened it up at one point to clean the button pads and broke the speaker away from the leads and simply discarded it. I've tested the connections on the board with a Game Boy Color speaker and it works fine but a GBC speaker has too high a profile to fit between the front housing and the PCB, even if I was to break out the NGPC speaker supports. Headphone jack audio works great but I'd like to have the speaker output as an option as well. Thanks!

    I'm thinking this will be a drop-in replacement since I believe it's a 20mm speaker.

    Answering my own question. I bought some 20mm (4mm thickness) 5v Mylar speakers (1W @ 8 Ohm) and they're a drop in replacement. Truth be told I think it sounds better than the factory speaker and is WAY better built, if you can believe that. However the Mylar cone is black rather than clear.

    Hey,

    Would you happen to have a link or specs to the speaker you ended up using? Mine is dying and I would love some tips on the installation and the model of speaker that worked for you.

    Thanks
