Where can I get an Owner's Manual for my M1 2021 24" iMac?

I assume there is a link within the Apple website for the Owner's Manual I seek, but I can't seem to locate it.


Can someone direct me?


Thank you.

iMac (M1, 2021)

There are three microphones present in that iMac. Two are top-located (for noise cancellation), and one is facing forward near the camera. They’re usually little more than pinholes.


While I haven’t used the microphone in an iMac M1 2021, for other Mac models an external (quality) microphone has provided far better sound. I’ve been using an AT2020 USB cardioid condenser, and there are other fine choices.

Often, questions like this are best answered with a teardown site. I can't link but a good one starts with "i", has "fix" in the middle and ends with "it".


Yeah. I used the full model name and “Teardown” into DuckDuckGo, a couple of clicks to get to the teardown webpage itself, and then a webpage text search for “microphone”.
