the spkr header near the front panel connections on the motherboard is the Diagnostic speaker. its the main feedback the diagnostics use. Beep. that means all is good. beep beep beep beep indicates an issue that need to be addressed.
a speaker should either ship with the motherboard, or it is built into the computer chassis.
if there is no speaker at hand, you can make one for temporary uses, I have used my stereo speaker and a couple bits of wire. any speaker, any wire will work temporarily.
a permanent solution looks like this: example only not an endorsement, shop around.

the speaker header labeled SPKR - SPEAK - or similar on the motherboard near the front panel connections (power switch, reset switch, power led, hdd led) will look something like this:

the plug has 4 pins but only 2 wires
page 2 of the manual states that the case does not have a speaker
