    Help with setting up Xbox 360 S to Surround Sound

    (In order to make the process easier, I ask that you please read the entire post in its ENTIRETY, before answering, as I do not wish to have to repeat what is already here. I've highlighted in Bold text the key points of my issue)





    Hello Xbox Community,

    As the title suggests, I am attempting to set up my Xbox 360 Slim 250gb to my Surround Sound system.
    Before you simply reply with the Xbox Support Article that describes how to set up surround sound, I've already looked it over thoroughly, and my issue is a bit different and isnt covered by that article. I'll explain my setup first:





    -I have an Xbox 360 Slim 250gb Black Glossy model. I have an HDMI cable, an Xbox 360 Component cable (red, yellow, white, green, blue) , and an Xbox 360 Composite Cable (red, yellow white) available for use.

    -My surround sound system is a VM Audio EXMS513 600w 5.1 surround sound system. This surround sound system
    does not have an optical input nor an HDMI input/output. It only has USB, SD Card, and AV (red white) inputs.

    First, I tried just plugging in the Component cable into the tv, and just plugging the Red White AV cables that are part of the component cables into the Surround sound system. However, the cable splits between green, blue, red and red, white, yellow.
    But the split is not far enough to reach the surround sound system AV inputs.

    Next, I attempted to plug in the HDMI cable to the back of the Xbox 360 S, and then plug in the Component cable to port to the Surround Sound. This became impossible because the Component Cable, when plugged in, covers the HDMI port, therefore you cannot
    connect an HDMI cable and Component Cable at the same time.

    Finally, I attempted to do the same as above, except instead of using the Component cable, I tried using the Composite cable, which seemed thinner and promising. However, this also failed, because of a small plastic flap, I guess you would call it, on
    the Composite cable that ALSO covers the HDMI port, making it impossible to plug both in.

    I've thought about somehow breaking off that little flap on the Composite cable and seeing if both will plug in that way, but I didn't want to cause any damage, so I'm trying here first.

    With my current situation, does anyone have any advice or tips as to how I can get my Xbox 360 S connected to my surround sound system, while also remembering these key points:

    -Surround Sound system DOES NOT have Optical nor HDMI inputs/outputs.

    -Surround Sound system ONLY has USB/SD/AV (red white) inputs.



    Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks in Advance,

    How do I setup hdmi with xbox 360 e and turtle beaches x12?

    If you use the composite cables just put the audio cables from the TBs (Red/White) into the back of the TV ,then place the console audio pins into that, then just connect the green cables from the TBs together. Then put other composite cables
    (Green Blue Red) into the connections on the TV .. best way I have found for the surround sound in HD unless you want to use this

    ..... but mines running as above and it sounds sweet

    Whats the Best Headset for MW3

    On the X12's can I hook my xbox up to my surround sound with a optical cable then hook the x12's to the back of my surround sound?

    Headsets

    The TB X12 headset is okay at best, at least it works for both the 360 and PC. I use the TB X12 headset + the DSS2 surround sound processor and I'm not overly impressed. The new 2012 Tritton AX 720 does NOT work with the PC if you live outside Europe, for
    some reason they removed the required cables from the other versions. The Tritton AX Pro is technically one of the only TRUE 5.1 surround sound headsets on the market but isn't very good. The problem is that the headset has something like 6-8 speakers/drivers
    per ear cup and the sound is not muffled because of this. Not to mention the copious amounts of wires and overly complicated sound settings.

    Sadly you just won't find that great over quality below $150.

    Which manafacturer do you think make the worst headsets?

    DPX21 cost me £130 on offer and x12 £90.. theyre rubbish.. and to take the pizz tb require you to pay extra if you want game audio thru the headset of x12.

    -

    You realise Madcatz own Tritton? Tritton make the better AX Pros which has True Surround sound. TB sound are all simulated.
