I have a T60 that, in general, I am quite happy with.

OTOH, . . .
*  Sound:
   While I have no clue about one- or two- or whatever channels,
   I do get sound on the system.  At the same time, I know there
   are some problems with UniAud that occasionally lock the system
   or clip the sound.  It's not very often, but since my system
   is more of a business system than anything else, it's not
   major to me.  I was trying each of the new updates when they
   came out, but the benefits were not really evident and the
   problems were just different rather than eliminated.
*  Networking:
   I have had zero problems with the wired connection.  I do
   have some problems with the WiFi stability.  The vast
   majority of the time it is fine.  Occasionally, I see the
   WiFi radio LED 'beaconing' [i.e., fast flashing].  This is
   a signal that the connection is about to drop.  If I catch
   it in the act, and just flip the radio off/on switch [the
   one just under the left front of the KB], the flashing
   stops and the connection is OK.  Note:  I am no totally sure
   this is not a router/AP problem, because sometimes I can
   cycle the power on the AP and this will get the signal back
   even when the KB switch does not.

Other than this, no problems that I can attribute to HW.

FWIW. . .
Carl
