Do Projectors Have Sound?

But in the current era and with recent technological development, most digital projectors come with internal speakers to produce sound while watching anything on it.
Still, if you are using the projector in a smaller area like a classroom, bedroom, or a place where there are a limited number of people, then the internal speaker will do the justice.
However, this is not always the case, still, the majority of people believe connecting it with external speakers will provide more premium sound quality.
Also, an older projection is mainly used as a slide projector to project images at 8mm and 16mm on the screen to show the image with the help of slides.
