I know this may sound a little silly, but I plan on getting a ASUS VG248QE 24 monitor and it says it has built in speakers. From reviews I've read, this is an AMAZING monitor I'm willing to pay for, but the speakers are absolutely terrible. So, the question is, could I use my external speakers as a main speaker instead of the built in speakers?

Yes you can do that.

Windows 7:
1. Go to Start and click on control Panel.
2. Click in Sound, then a new window will open up.
3. In the new windows click on the tab “Playback" and right click in the window and click on Show Disabled devices.
4. Now check if Speaker is listed there and right click on it and choose enable.
5. Highlight that speaker and click on "Set as Default"
