I was given one of these 10 years ago, and never got it to work as a USB speaker, so I attached some clear speaker wire to the speaker alone, and used it as a passive sub for a small receiver / amp years ago... (I think I once read that drivers are only installed if the sub is plugged into USB, when doing a OS install).
I still have it but don’t use it, and was thinking of trying to get it to work on my G4 mini running OS 9.
Does anybody have any ideas or thoughts about this?
Or anything else I might “give a try”?
I don’t even have it at home right now, but something made it pop into my mind, and I’ve been thinking about it...

I don't see why it wouldn't work as you said the drivers are already backed into the OS. I think it was OS 9.04 that brought support with it. It will just appear under the Sound control panel as soon as you connect it so you should be covered by having installed anything higher than that.

Kinda right....
Umm. I’d have to go get it and have it plugged into the computer, and do a re install.
But idunno. Like I said, I never seen it work, aside from the iMac that the person who gave me the sub had.
