Setting up a 2.1 channel system neednt be costly. You may already have a 2 channel amp or receiver you can use. If not, the "T" amp idea is one approach that costs $50 or so. But you can buy a new Stereo receiver at a big box retailer for $100 or so, too.

You may have some small stereo speakers you want to use. But there are also new speakers that would work well in this application for $50 a pair if you check the various on-line retailers, and give you better sound and stereo separation than the TV speakers

There is a nice little self-powered sub from Yamaha with 8-inch woofer generally available on ebay for about $70, or you can DIY one of these as I outlined for about $50 in parts.
