Can I use these with a PS3 optical or HDMI output? The PS3 only has an optical and HDMI output?

Just use the RCA cables that came with the ps3, and set the audio feature under "settings" to RCA. Your ps3 will still display with hdmi cable and then output audio with RCA. Also if you're using RCA to output audio, be sure to buy one of these with this specific speaker system http://www.amazon.com/Console-Adapter-Convert-Plugs-Single/dp/B0006U3ACY/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1263445395&sr=1-1 This adapter will give your ps3 5.1 channel surround sound without having to use the lame matrix mode.

No, your PS3 needs an HDMI cable. It has an output for digital optical audio that you could hook up to your surround sound if it takes it but will only output sound from this port not video. I have my PS3 hooked up to my TV via HDMI and have my TV hooked up to my surround sound via the digital optical audio cable so the PS3s sounds comes thru the surround sound

if you use the basic rca cables that came with the ps3 and plug it into the reciever with an hdmi cable connecting the tv and reciever it might work.

Sorry but my english is very bad, whatever, I'll try to help you, what kind of cable are you use to output the audio? HDMI, Optical?

Yes, you can. I use these on my PS3, Xbox 360 and laptop. All you need is an open USB slot on your console. I use these with the component cables though. If you use HDMI I don't know how to set that up.

I got a digital optical cable to hook this Sony unit to my PS3. I set the PS3 audio setting to digital optical but can not get any sound. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? My TV even has a digital optical connection and I don't get any sound from it eitehr. I know the cable is ok because I see the red glow on one end.

Yes, The receiver has digital/optical inputs on it. I have my PS3 hooked up to it by two inputs, First the video is running out of the PS3 through the HDMI cable. Second I have the audio out of the PS3 through the digital/optical output. The sound is amazing!!!

The way you have your devices set up depends on your TV and if it's capable of splitting the HDMI audio from the PS3 through the TV to the home theater receiver via optical audio. You may have to check your TV operation manual for that... One sure way to get your Home Theater Receiver to output 5.1 sound is to connect an optical audio cable from your PS3 to the receiver. Connect an HDMI cable from your PS3 to your TV for HD output. In your PS3 settings, you will have to make sure your video option output is set to HDMI, while your audio option output is set to optical. It should automatically detect the 5.1 sound channel. If not, you can go ahead and enable DTS and Dolby Digital 5.1. This should get your 5.1 sound system working from your PS3.

According to the research I did - the short answer is "yes". The splitter does not care what source the HDM signal originates from......it's only a signal splitter. PS3 is a 1.3HDMI compatible system - and should work with the splitter..........in theory anyway. That's the best I can tell you.

All you need is a HDMI cable (1.3, 1080p supported) goint out from your PS3 to back of the 606 (game.tv HDMI input), and only one output from the 606 to the HDTV., that is it, no other cable involved. HDMI stands for high def multimedia interface, it does both Viedo and Audio. It is the future.

Sorry I don' have a PS3. However, since this cable does not send (HDMI) signal to a VGA monitor. I'm sure that the same would have happened to the PS3.

You can use one HDMI cable and also use the digital audio input on your sound bar. Most cable boxes have the output the ps3 should as well.

These use a Stereo Jack input such as on a computer, the only option on the PS3 that I have encountered is Digital F/O out, which these do not have an input, xbox360 I would not know. Hope this helps

What 2 channel types do you have? I tried connecting my Bose directly to the PS3's digital optical port, which works perfectly fine. In fact, I think the quality is slightly better than hooking it up from the TV's digital optical output but the only limitation is that you won't be able to output regular tv from your bose speakers.

yes. you need to buy "HDMI Multi-Channel PCM 5.1 7.1 Surround Audio Decoder" so you can use it for ps3 if you buy check eBay for it

As far as I can tell, the cheapest options to have this work with the PS3 with true surround sound, would be something like this:http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item;=350193812906&ssPageName;=STRK:MEWAX:IT- With this product, you'd have to set your PS3 audio to output HDMI LPCM 5.1 44/48khzOr, if you buy a Tritton AXPro 5.1 Headset, it would come with a Dolby decoder that can output to these speakers.
