Does this projector have a built in speaker or do you need to add an external speaker? We are looking into using this in a classroom.

It has a speaker I am not sure if it is loud enough. It depends on the classroom size.

Hey there, Actually it does and the sound quality is surprising. The volume is easily controlled with the remote. Your class will love it.

It has one but the quality is so-so and the volume capacity is limited so for kids sitting in the back, they may have a hard time hearing. I would reccommend external speakers no matter what projector you to with, it adds quite a bit to the over-all experience as well as the impact and quality of information delivery.

It has speakers but not good ones!! It's either too loud or too low. We had to buy a sound bar to make it a more enjoyable sound. But for a classroom a d not for a theater, it may be just fine.

Yes it does. With a HDMI connection both Video & Audio are ported into the BenQ.

Get the Ion Block Rocker. You use the auxiliary jack on the speaker and the headphone jack on the projector. Sounds much better than projector speakers. Just be sure to turn projector volume up as well.

You do need a projector. I already had one that my school provided, but I don't know what brand it is.

It does not come with external speakers and I found it needs to be connected to an amplifier which would have speakers. It works great that way but does not work well if you wanted to use it alone.

All you need to have a Receiver to connect External speaker. I connected my Epson To Denon DHT- 391XP 5.1 channel home theater ststem. I am hanging the projector from ceiling. I also connected Samsung blue ray player to watch DVD and Blueray. Recently I added new WD player to receiver my so that now I am watching all formats of contents. Hope this helps. Happy watching and Happy holidays. Merry christmas.

There are no speakers to this monitor. I have to use external speakers with their own volume control.

As I recall, yes, it does. And a built in speaker, though I wouldn't use it for anything but small presentations.Good luck!

No. It doesn't come with an external speaker, but you can plug it into one that you purchase separately. Although I'd wager the speaker would need to be powered.

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

It has a built in speaker. It sounds fine to me. And it has a pretty good volume control. I use this for my son to watch DVDs. I also use it to play his bedtime music CD when we are out of town.

no speakers.. Need to be external. This monitor has the best color I have seen. Bought 2 of them, and the color was perfectly matched on both, didn't have to adjust. But no speakers, and no height adjustment. Sorry.

I don't usually use the built in speaker, but I have tried it before. I had HDMI from my cable box plugged in and the audio from that was coming through the built in speaker just fine. If you're using the projector connected to a computer make sure you have an auxiliary cable running from the computer to the back of the projector. If you're doing that and its still not working then I'm not sure.

Yes it has one speaker built in. You can find more info about it on Creatives website (creative.com). Probably a nice extra but I woulden't expect it to be much more than a "Nintendo DS quality" speaker.

No, but I have really enjoyed using this projector. It does a really good job projecting. I use it in my classroom.

I use it with with powerpoint, so while you don't need a projector why would you just want to show a presentation with your laptop screen :-P

No you can't load anything into it. It is strictly a projector with audio and video lines you connect to a DVD player or gaming system. It does have a speaker though.
