The device can play music (mp3 only) out of the box so there is no need for a mod. I didn't get a chance to try out that feature so I can't comment on the software or the quality of the sound. There is also a headphone jack if the speakers don't cut it.
Here is a link to the manufacturer's website with the specs.
