How can I add external speakers to my iMac

My iMac has the M1 chip running Ventura 13.5.2 macOS. I have external speakers I'd like to add but there is no connection that I can see. The only connection I have is a headphone connection.

iMac 24″, macOS 13.5

The headphone out is also used to connect external speakers. But the speakers do need to be powered (amplified), not just any plain old speaker. There are lots of external speakers built for use with personal computers, in all price ranges.
