Yes, you may want external speakers. The speakers are O.K. But, sounds tinny.

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.

To confirm what others have said, this monitor does not have internal speakers. Just plug separate speakers into your computer audio output.

You may have to change the setting on your tv to use the external speaker. Mine sounds great.

Yes definately, due to the slim design of all HDTV's the internal speakers are crap, so external speakers is highly recommended.

I am using it currently and we have no external speakers either... The only reason we needed this was because our DVR doesn't have HDMI... (old but still works)... But all audio comes through the TV, so it should work for you.

It does not come with an external speaker but you can connect it. I have connected it to several different speakers or pairs of speakers with excellent results.Jim

Yes... You may also want to look at Audio engine's A5... It is larger and powered as well . Check with your tv owner's manual on how to hookup external speakers

No, speakers are not built into this unit. It also does not come with any external speakers. It DOES have a speaker connection and has good sound quality. You just have to buy the speakers separate if you don't have any already.
