360 on Pc Monitor

Kiith

Hey, so with GTA coming out in two days, i need to finally get the VGA cable that allows you to play on a monitor (only avg/dvi cable), as i dont think its fair to hoard the tv for the next few weeks. But what about sound? This (http://www.uk-consoles.co.uk/shop/images/official_xbox_360_vga_hd_av_cable_360.jpg) seems to have odd audio connections. So would one of these allow me to connect the speakers up? (http://www.audiogear.com/cgi-bin/shopper.cgi?key=ADPT-2RCFMSF&preadd=action)

Also, does anyone know somewhere in town that sells either the VGA cable or whatever audio piece i need? Maplans? Peats?

I found something similar that i am looking for, but there isnt any 2nd aux in on my speakers.

I just went through the same dilemma a week ago. Searched everywhere for a female to female 3.5 coupler, but nowhere had them.

Then, bought a set of wireless headphone from Lidl and it had a connector in there for red/white rca to female 3.5. All I had to do then is get a red/white RCA female to female connector. Believe me, those 2 items are a lot easier to get than the 3.5 coupler. Try Soundstore or Harvey Normans, and you'll get sorted.

I found a 3.5mm coupler at Mapplin's for something around €3 no problem. That 3rd link you have, the splitter, is already included with the VGA cable...

I bought the official MS Xbox360 VGA HD cables (e30 in Game/Gamestop and e25 in HMV) when I got my Xbox and I have it setup to run through my monitor and also PC speakers.

In the box you get the AV output which has a VGA connector and two phono plugs (L & R audio) and you will also get a L/R Phono to 3.5mm jack connector (the same one you linked to, just with a slightly more 360 look to it) and a VGA adaptor thing (Not sure what it is for, dont use it).
