What kind of speakers can I buy for a small screen hdtv with digital audio output?
aero asked:
I just bought a 26″ sharp lcd hdtv. The picture is fine, but the speakers are very disappointing. the tv does have a digital output audio. what kind of external speakers/woofers are compatible with this tv? what components will be needed? i reckon a conventional computer speaker wouldn’t work.

In order to use the digital audio output, you’ll need a Dolby receiver, which means you’ll need a full-blown Home Theater kit. You can get these relatively cheaply these days, but you get what you pay for. If the TV is a small one for a bedroom, you might do better to take the ANALOG audio output and run that into a set of PC speakers with subwoofer.
Buy an inexpensive surround sound system from Walmart. they can be had pretty cheap
I would get an amplifier & matching speakers. Hook audio out from TV to Audio in on amp, then wire up the speakers. If you don’t go this route, the speakers you buy can only be the same wattage as the ones in the TV.
