How is the Audio using built in speakers. Is it acceptable without adding external audio device (soundbar and alike).

Kurt L. The audio is good for most residential uses - commercial use in noisy environments may be less effective. If you like audio, and being immersed in movies of television shows, an audio bar or Home Theater system may be a great addition. --Mr. S

Not with this model. There are two pretty good built-in speakers. There are also plugs for external speakers if you want something with richer sound and a sub-woofer.

There is s a full sound sistem, but most ppl dont was to spend hundrends of dallors for sound. I found u can hook up an I home to it and it works just as well

Well, it obviously doesn't have any idea whether a particular movie is BluRay or not. If the audio, whether DVD, BluRay or Satellite/Cable, is good, then yes it sounds excellent. It doesn't understand 7.1 audio. It wouldn't make sense for it to, since it is a single soundbar. So, you're not going to hear sounds 'behind' you, as with standalone speakers. I am quite please with the overall audio quality and the simulated DTS soundfield is quite impressive. Also, the bass from this is really amazing considering there is not subwoofer.

Hello Bat, Could you please clarify what you mean by external sound? I would be glad to answer you question as soon as you do that favor.

The built-in speakers are surprisingly good quality. That said, I wouldn't recommend blasting the volume. I don't think I've turned the knob more than 75%, but haven't had any problems at all with sound. You can attach your own speakers, but you'll need a small amplifier.

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

It's good. My last system required turning the center speaker up. Occasional increase in treble but really rarely notice missing dialogue. You can always turn surround off, but we never do. Hope that helps. Watching Bourbe Legacy now.

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

The speaker is fine..not great but I have a surround sound speaker system with my computer so the monitor speakers are not a factor for me. Many internal speakers on monitors are similar.

I agree with everything already said. One negative with my sound bar is that the sound is somewhat muffled at low volumes. As the volume is increased, the sound is wonderful.

The sound bar has an rca out to add extra accessories that require a signal....even another bar. The audio is ok...for the size of the bar it's good...Not to be fooled by systems that offer a separate woofer for those low notes. It seems to boost the 50-60hz range to make up for the lack of lows.

I agree, there is no need for external speakers unless you are trying to produce surround sound.

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

If you want a sound bar, it's probably a good choice. It sounds good but doesn't have a huge bass response, so it's less likely to carry. Just keep it turned down to a reasonable level.

You can add external speakers - there are audio outputs. There are also audio inputs to accompany external video inputs.

I'm.useing existing speakers from.another system that I had, but I.don't think you would have a problem if you use non surround speakers
