Default OT tv speakers

Anyone got any opinions about the sound quality of built in speakers on a
26" lcd tv? 2 x 10 watts seems to be the norm. Is it significantly worse
than a CRT? If so, is there any way to run external speakers that can be
controlled with the tv remote? TIA


Our main TV source is the freeview box/PVR, which sends the sound to the
main stereo. Volume can be controlled either via the freeview box or the
main amp. Beats any internal TV speakers by miles. I think I can do the same
with the DVD player, though don't try that nearly so often.

I realise that doesn't answer your question exactly, but thought it may give
you different ideas :-)



Yes, thanks. Interesting that your freeview remote effectively controls
the tv volume. Does this mean that an amplified speaker can be
controlled by the tv remote? With two volume controls how would you know
which levels to set? Trial and error?
