Would Canton Nestor 602s be good for a TV setup?

Hello, im someone who has no real clue about Audio, but what I do know is that my TV speaker are just kinda meh.

So for both esthetic and sound purposes I thought about maybe getting 2 tower speakers like these. Its important to know that these would mostly only play Youtube videos and the occasional Series or Movie.

So one of my main questions is if something like these is either Overkill or not suited for something like youtube Videos?

I am looking at an auction that'll end in 5 hours for around 100€. What do the experts on here think?

Keep in mind that these speakers will need an amplifier to power them, so if you're currently relying on TV speakers and don't have an amplifier you'll need to get one. You would want an amp that matches the impedance which looks like 4 to 8 Ohm.
- And is able to power at least 100W per channel
These seem to have decent reviews from what I could find.
Don’t forget that you’ll need a receiver to power them. Cheap secondhand ones are usually okay but won’t have fancy features like surround sound or atmos.
I know these are advertised to get to 25hz, but consider adding a sub at some point.
They will do fine and should massively improve your watching experience. Don't forget you need an amplifier/receiver.
Overkill is really subjective. What size is the room? As long as the space supports them, I’d say go for it.
If size is a concern, you can probably find some nice bookshelf speakers that’ll serve the purpose well.
