Anyone got any opinions about the sound quality of built in speakers on

With TVs there is typically a headphone socket that mutes the interna;
speakers. i run a cable from that into the HiFi amplifier. the TV
remote continues to control the volume.

My hi fi is some distance away, so that wouldn't work for me, but I
wonder if the headphone output is the same volume as the audio out. If
so, I could just use multi media speakers and leave the things
switched on. Remote controlled amplified speakers don't seem to be
generally available, and it looks like it's cheaper to buy a mini hi
fi system.

I can't believe there aren't tvs where the audio out is capable of
driving a pair of modest speakers. Would seem like the obvious
solution to the tinny audio problem

Open up the set, and disconnect the internal speakers and wire to your
own favourites, grab the input electrolytic and feel the power of Jesus..

More tonic and less gin I think :-)
