I went one better (well, farther anyway...)  I put a jack in the side
for an external speaker.  Works fine.  Then I put an audio-tape pot in
the speaker for an old-fashioned volume knob, that seems to work well
too.  (Yes, I know nothing about what this does to the speaker-driver
parts in the modem--Brent?  And yes, this killed the warranty I'm
sure.)  Unplug the jack, you get the internal speaker.
