HDMI + analog audio?

trackhappy · 2nd April 2012, 11:28 AM

Hey guys, I'm thinking about getting an Xbox 360 Slim, but I just want to make sure of one thing first.

I know I'll be able to hook it up to my Dell U2311H and that's all well and good, but since the monitor doesn't do any sound whatsoever, I won't have any sound. Unless I get the analog audio out plug, there seems to be one on DealExtreme.

So basically I'd be having HDMI video to my monitor and stereo audio to my speakers. Can this be done? Or is there another way of doing it?

Thanks.

The 2 cables wont fit in together unless you buy the product you linked.

Or, you can take away the casing from around the AV cable and they fit perfectly, a few mates and myself have done it, saved a bit of cash by doing it

easy peasy, just careful with the flat head screwdriver popping it open
