Do you need a sound bar or other speakers for this TV?

Personally, I didn't really like the sound since my last TV had speakers on the front. These speakers sounded bad to me, so I got a sound bar. Go with the Vizio S3821w-C0 38 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar with Wireless Subwoofer. It sounds great!

Yes, you can but you can also connect your sound bar to your LCD/LED TV directly. AV receiver won't be needed.

No, there are no speakers on this monitor. Also, there is no input or tuner for off-the-air or cable TV.

The sound quality for this TV is OK. Very normal compared to its size, its Basic quality, depends of what you are watching or listening. If you want a higher quality sound,I recommend you get the sound bar or a surround system.

I'm gonna say no. Just plug everything into your TV then use an optical cable to connect the tv to the soundbar. All sounds should play though the soundbar.

The onboard speakers are enough to tell you there's sound. So hopefully you have a receiver and speakers, DVD player, etc. You'll need a big place to put it -wall mount? I have this one which it strong and cheap: Cheetah Mounts APDAM2B Articulating Dual Arm TV Wall Mount Bracket for 32 to 65-Inch LCD, LED, Plasma, Flat Screen Monitors Bundle with Twisted Veins 10-Feet HDMI Cable and 6-Inch Level

it doesn't include cables other than basic stereo cables to hook sound bar to receiver so you'll need your own hdmi cables

This particular sound bar does not have a HDMI port. You can use the optical input or the A/V cables if your TV has them.

Sadly no. I had to use HDMI to connect it to my tv to get sound. You can also connect your own speakers.

I presume the Direct TV and PS3 boxes are attached to the TV, so all you have to do is connect the sound bar to the TV and then select external speakers when you want to use it. If you need extra HDMI connections then you can buy a multiple (2 in / 1 out for example) HDMI cable to connect the boxes.

Not sure what you expect from TV speakers but this tv has pretty decent sound. Nothing bad about it but you would definitely take some external speakers over the built in ones if you want better sound. Hope this helps

No you do not need external speakers. However, you may want to have them, since the tv is small and therefore so are the internal speakers.

you can adjust the sound thru your tv remote. go to settings then sound. I know you can have surround, just check the options. Mine i bought the philips sound bar ($98.00) with subwoofer. You can put the tv on mute or have the tv sound on. Works perfectly fine

I stongly recommend a sound bar. The sound from the TV is quite inferior. It made a huge difference for me. I bought both TV and the sound bar here.

Speakers are so bad audio settings are useless. Investing in $50 more will get you a better tv. If you can't then invest in a sound bar

I have not seen any TV sold in America without speakers. NOW, the quality is another matter. I just added a sound bar to a LG 55" Google TV,,,,, and the difference is amazing. The TV speakers sound good --- until -- you fire up the sound bar.
