If you are experiencing distorted audio or any issue with your speakers, use this guide to replace your HP Chromebook 15a-nb001dx's speakers.
The speakers emit sound from the laptop, and damage to them could distort or disable audio. If any audio is noticed to be distorted, then the problem may be present with the speakers themselves.
When replacing the speakers, make sure the device is powered off.
