You can add speakers to your Westinghouse television.

You can improve the sound of your Westinghouse television by adding external speakers. Be advised: You'll need a special type of speaker to do the job. Westinghouse TVs, like all televisions, don't have powered speaker outputs. They output a preamp-level signal. This means you'll need a set of powered speakers, like those you use for a computer. Connection is simple and only requires a readily available adapter cable.
