Yes, true, external speakers could be a solution, attached somehow. Not
3D printing, I don't have such a contraption and know very little about

A decade or two ago, I bought external speakers for my desktop computer.
One central unit, AC powered, and two side units connected to the
central one. There were others with 5 speakers or more.
3 years ago, what I found was small, and USB powered.
