using headphones on a 360

Hi all,

I have a pair of Bose headphones that i wish to use with my 360. I have a VGA connector to my LCD but that has no speakers or headphone port. How do I connect my hadphones to the 360? I tried connecting it to the port in the wireless controller but the headphone jack doesnt fit.

Many thanks, GodAtum.

Hmmm get a RCA adapter for headphones and you should be ok. RCA btw is the Red and White white ports on your tv

If you bought the official 360 VGA cable then it comes with an adaptor to convert the RCA (Red and White audio) into a stereo pin (3.5mm). What you would need now is to get a 3.5mm to 3.5mm stereo adaptor to allow you to connect it to your headphones.

Oh ok. will this 2 phono socket to 3.5mm do along with your suggestion as I do not have the official xbox cable?

you would still need to buy the stereo coupler he showed you.

buy the turtle beach x1's there only 60 bucks and there good sound quality. and they have the game audio and chat audio in the same headset.

Thank for all your help! will i need an amp to listen directly from the xbox to my headphones or will the sound be ok?EmperorChris

Not unless you have some hugely powerful speakers in those headphones!!

I have a pair of wireless Philips headphones I occassionally use, and just have the VGA cable with connector plug into the base unit and it works fine.
