Well, my TV is older, but I don’t use an external speaker.

But because of laziness I suppose, but also because I don’t want a sub-woofer type sound. Also don’t want a second remote.

I am sure those things can avoided, so I am open to advice on what to get.

A crappy $80 soundbar from Target will blow the built in speakers out of the water in every quality metric

I'd probably just go for some nice over-the-ear headphones though, unless you like tinkering with TV stuff

You could pick up a soundbar that works with hdmi arc. No sub, works with tv volume, and better sound than tv speakers.
