Does this require speakers? If so, which speakers have you used? This is for a home theater and I wasn't sure if the sound was sufficient?

I would not recommend this for a home theater, unless you need it to be portable. If you plan on using as a dedicated home theater projector that will never be moved I would not recommend this machine. It is meant more for business applications/power point displays, etc and to be portable to move to different locations.

well, yes it does require speaker if you intend to give a presentation for a large audience. Item bought for friend, and he uses yamaha speakers. You can connect them to any speakers it provide good sound quality. Bose, Yamaha or sony.

No it do not the speakers that are built in are fine but I hook up my Bose sound link when watching movies outside! It's a awesome projector beautiful picture inside and outside on a white sheet :)

Sorry, but I can't recommend another one as I have no other experience. I bought this unit for business purposes. Do you want to ceiling mount it? If you want it to be portable (move it from room to room, or use at work for movies) it would be fine with external speakers. In your research, just look for one with built in DVD. On the other hand, if you have a DVD player in your home theater system, and you'll only be playing it in your home theater room, then you don't really need built-in DVD. The unit you inquired about is best if you need it to be portable.

It does have built in speakers but they are not of the best quality. Any home theater sound package would work fine with this projector.

As you stated that this projector is for a home theater, I would recommend getting some theater speakers, as the ones on this projector are great for loudness, but have no bass/treble adjustments.

It has two ten-watt speakers. In my opinion this is not sufficient for a home theater. It has a couple component out connections, one of which is for audio-so it probably could be connected to external speakers. I returned mine so quickly, I never tried this option.

Yes, it does need speakers. I bought Sony tower speakers and a subwoofer along with an Onkyo stereo receiver. It all works beautifully together! I hope this helps.

It doesn't have speakers. I think it's just meant to be a high resolution monitor. You would have to purchase speakers, or use the speakers that are apart of the device you're connecting it to.

Any speakers that use RCA, digital optical, or 1/8 inch speaker cables. The TV has pretty good sound quality on its own, but for the best sound quality you would need a receiver in which you would hook your speaker system up to.

This item is just speakers (also comes with wires). You will actually need a receiver to hook them up to in order to make them work. A DVD player will also be needed if you want to watch movies using these speakers. More importantly though (and mandatory) is the receiver (any brand will do). A home theater system would also work in place of a receiver, but most of those come with speakers.

Any good quality speakers will work fine. Any good quality speakers will work. I would suggest speakers that sound the best to you.

It has audio output but it is not powerful enough to drive big speakers, you will need to either hook up the audio from your player to your speakers or the audio output from the projector to a receiver that will amplify the sound.

Does this mean that the speakers on teh TV will still be able to play audio?And that the audio from the DVD needs to get to the Onkyo via optical?So you can use the TV for center speaker, and the rest of the speakers for the soundstage? Sounds good! And also allows the system to remain simple to use (for the wife) without the Onkyo, but can easily become a ciname system at the press of a power button? Wow!

I have the same issue. This was not made for a TV setup the way its advertised. You will need the separate receiver and speakers for optimal results.

There is a picture focus (brightness cones from a bulb and not adjustable) and some sound. You will need speakers. Very good projector for the money :-)

I do... But, I am not a tech freak regarding the home theatre. It's sounds great when we watch movies or games. Nobody has ever told me I suck for not having a true middle speaker. :)Typically folks are shocked how well the while system sounds.

I have speakers attached for full room sound... I remember the speakers worked well - this is a small room 10X13 should be fine... I would check it out now... but I'm traveling.

Does this need any kind of output speaker or does the sound come out of the unit itself??

This would be more than what you require if you are looking for just speakers since this system includes everything. I would suggest getting just the speakers and not look at entertainment systems since they include components you already have.

You will need to run the speakers using an external amplifier. I use an AudioSource Amp 100 and it sounds good.

Mine has very good sound. It does require external speakers. Maybe have the sound muted, or otherwise disabled in your settings.

The speakers are great. I guess it depends on how big of an area you will be using it in on whether or not you should buy extra speakers! I suggest you but it. set it up and then decide before you spend more money
