Audio Question HELP! Will it work or do i need different cables?

I just bought this unit, so I can understand the question. It is really quite simple. There are three HDMI inputs and one HDMI output on the Onkyo HT-S5100 (also tons of other RCA, etc. inputs, no problem there!). The HDMI output feeds into the TV, of course. But I found I needed to connect a cable or an optical cable to the back of the TV in order to feed the audio back into the Onkyo amplifier. Now EVERYTHING sounds great!

I would buy a splitter to split the 2 channel audio from the mic. Having all three in one plug could cause issues. That is what I do to get an audio connection to my computer.

Hi - Let's clarify something right away. Do not use VGA & HDMI cables from the same source at the same time. Just remember that what ever source you feed this monitor with an HDMI cable will be the one that sound is applied to the headset jack on the back. Anything else, you will have to hook up your speaker system straight to the source unit ( PC-Game unit - video feeds ) Hooking up directly to the source unit will generally give you the best sound anyway. If you have more than one feed to the monitor, it has a switch to select which one you will receive at any given moment. The HDMI feed will be the only one that sends sound to the monitor headphone jack, and you can plug a sound system into this jack or just headphones. - Good luck and enjoy! - Jim T.

Hello,I am not sure as to wether or not that particular connection will work, the size of the male end of the cable is the same as any standard A/V cable (red & white) so if that size fits in your audio out its a cheap option to try out. It was intended to deliver audio and I'm sure it will be able to meet your power requirements. Mine is running from a blu ray to an older 5.1 surround system with excellent results. Hope that helps a little, sorry I didn't have a better answer.

You need an audio interface. Usually plugs in via USB. The. The speakers can conect to that. They connect via 1/4 inch cables. An interface will run you about 200 for a cheap one that's good enough.

Yes this will work. I use this device for this exact thing. It comes with a breakout cable not pictured here that has composite audio inputs and outputs.

Yes, it will work, but you will need to configure the audio output to PCM first. The output is stereo.

You probably want a mixer. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_kk_1?rh=i%3Aelectronics%2Ck%3Aaudio+mixer&keywords;=audio+mixer&ie;=UTF8&qid;=1429283504

No, it will not work directly. You need a splitter if you want both audio and mic.

you will need xlr cables or you can also use rca cables. I use xlr cables because I go to powered subwoofers and speakers.

you should also purchase an hdmi cable, a vga cable, and a standard 2.5mm audio cable; the power supply is includededit: you will need a 3.5 mm standard audio cable, not a 2.5mm, sorry for the confusion

I believe it should be fine. The hookup is a direct audio hookup there is no USB so the sound is going to be directly fed into your sound cards audio input. You will need a 6.35mm(male) to 3.5mm(male) audio cable how this helps.

it is likely it will work. its pretty good, BUT it does do a lot of cross talk, so if you have other cables near it, they will likely all make sound. that may or may not be a problem

Hi, did this work? I have a set of surround computer speakers, with a headphone jack style output. Looking for a cable to plug them into my TV?

There is a power supply cord included. You will need either a XLR, TRS, or RCA (mono) for the audio.

For your situation what you need is an optical audio splitter. This item is a switcher. Search Amazon for optical audio splitter, there are many to pick from.

If your audio port is a pair of RCA stereo outputs you will need an adapter available at Radio Shack but to answer your question, yes. It should work quite well.
