According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus includes a speaker, a terminal, an amplifier, a power supply circuit, a setting module, a detection module, and a controller. The terminal is configured to input an audio signal from an external device. The amplifier is configured to amplify the audio signal, and to output audio from the speaker. The power supply circuit is configured to supply power to the amplifier. The setting module is configured to set data which indicates whether audio output from the speaker is to be enabled or disabled when the apparatus is in a non-operative state. The detection module is configured to detect a predetermined state of the apparatus. The controller is configured to control the power supply circuit, based on the data and the predetermined state, in order to supply the power to the amplifier when the apparatus is in the non-operative state.
