If he connected non-amplified speakers to the red & white audio out RCA jacks, they won't work. Yes, he probably needs an amplifier, as the audio out jacks are at line level. Just a cheap Radio Shack amplifier or a decent stereo amp will work. However, the line out jacks are not connected to the TV volume control, so he'll need a separate remote for the amplifier. Some high-end stereo receiver/amplifiers have this built in to their remotes.
