Can the speakers on a MacBook pro be repaired/replaced?

my right speaker started sounded really bad - lots of distortion and crackling. I've done all the resets suggested in the support forum - it must be a hardware problem. Does anyone know if this is an easy repair? Is it worth the cost? Or should I just buy some external speakers. I'm dealing with the situation now by running all the sound through my left speaker.


thanks

sadie

The part itself only cost about $25 - $50 US with labor & taxes are extra and vary by region. Contact Apple or an Apple Authorized Service Provider for a repair estimate.
