>They're good enough for lightweight music playing and even watching some TV.

This is such a low bar.

I have a 2019 16" MBP. The speakers are good for a laptop. That's it. I'm connecting the headphones or external speakers for any listening requirement. A $30 pair of Logitechs destroys the built-in speakers.

>No, they don't compare to my 7.1.4 surround system.

I'm having trouble reconciling the number of people in the thread who will do things like implement an entire Atmos home theatre setup (which is awesome, but in a lot of ways excessive), and yet are saying "MBP speakers are all you need!"

I'm trying to understand which of these is true:

- You can't interpret text; or

- You just don't like anyone who has anything good to say about Apple or their products; or

- You're just not very smart at all.

Low bar for what?

> The speakers are good for a laptop.

We're talking about laptops. That's the whole point!

Who's doing that?
