It depends on the brand of laptop and the problem with the speakers. The most likely cause is that a connection has come loose somewhere and the speakers are fine. If you were to replace them the best way to do it would be otaining a broken laptop of the same model and swapping them.

The best external laptop speakers that I've come across are those made by Bose. The sound quality is superb and they also create a full sound that normally isn't achieved by small speakers.

Yes, you can purchase external speakers for your laptop from companies such as Altec Lansing or Logitech. You will just need to connect the speakers to your laptop using a USB cable, which will be supplied with the speakers. Some speakers come with a separate electrical power cable, while others use just one cable for the sound and power.
All laptops by default have only a 3.5mm stereo jack output for audio and mostly 2 speaker or 2.1 (1 woofer) small speakers are sufficient. What you buy will also depend on if you need, if you need your speakers to be portable and you need to carry those around then you need compact speakers if you are not happy with the built in speakers. For home use you can go for bigger and better ones also. - Neeraj Sharma
