I have an Xbox 360 for over an year and it's been useless the entire time

So I bought a used 360 Arcade more than a year ago, and I played it for like 4 hours in total. Why? Because I still don't know how to connect it to my Creative stereo speakers, which should be extremly simple, though I see absolutely no audio outputs on the 360's rear side. I checked YouTube videos and some articles and found nothing to be thorough enough, and I already asked about this before in this forum and on some other 360 forum.

So please, someone just tell me what I need to do to get sound out of this thing to my speakers. This is 2011, why doesn't the device have audio outputs?

bowenbrown: If I buy this: http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Cable-Adapter-XBOX-360-Slim/dp/B002P35JMO/ref=sr_1_1?s=videogames&ie=UTF8&qid=1321624083&sr=1-1 ...then I will have two female RCA connectors, but what cable do I use with them? We're getting some progress, help me a little bit more. :Dyonyz

simpley purchase an RCA to 3.5mm plug and jack in any set of PC speakers........try opening ur eyes and using that nogen!

HDMI gives the best picture, there's nothing matching it as of right now.

I don't see why not. HDMI gives audio though, does on my setup. But, I don't have stereo speakers either, just the TV.

If you're really unsure, just head over to Best Buy or something. That way if it doesn't work, you can return for a full refund.

So your saying because you cant get surround sound that you havent played the xbox....thats a little silly to me because there is this thing called the internet or how about customer service.mrsniper83

It's not about surround sound. I don't even have surround speakers. It's about using the 360 with my stereo speakers and my LCD screen, which doesn't have its own speakers. It's either using my speakers or not getting sound at all. "He's treating it like his personal service forum" - What do you mean by that? I asked here because I thought I'd get a good response. If you don't think it's the place to help users with such issues, then ignore the entire post. yonyz

Well I tend to say "thank you" when I've got the information to solve the problem, which I did, so thank you. And no, I don't think it's my personal service forum, and what the hell is wrong with asking for tech info outside the official support channels? Again, if you find this behaviour inappropriate, DO NOT HELP, AND DO NOT TAKE PART IN THE THREAD. Thanks to all who helped.

Edit: I never, ever ask ANYONE, not even on forums, before I Google the issue myself. I googled numerous times, watched YouTube videos and always felt that I am missing some information, a problem that was resolved thanks to the people in this forum. To hell if I knew what I did wrong.

Have a good day.yonyz

If you can't find answer on Google, use Bing. Simply type, "Xbox360 VGA cable" done. I mean, that's kinda easy right? You have xbox360 and you have a motinor with VGA. And then, you get those stereo white/red thing. If you cannot plug the white/red thing, get the adapter from the first few replies. I feel sorry for you though, it is very easy to just go Fry's and everything is there, Best Buy is decent too, and you don't have any good stores.magicalclick
