This video is intended to show you two quick, easy and cheap how to options to hook up an xbox one console to Logitech, desktop speakers or even a small portable or home stereo system.

I will never understand why Microsoft doesn't just install an aux in on the actually console. You know it would make a lot of sense. Also make this kind of thing a lot easier.
I think they like to make life difficult or get you to buy additional equipment or accessories. Cheers
Michael Sloan ikr I looked for one and was really surprised that i didn't see one
Michael Sloan my Xbox One S controller has a 3.5 mm Jack
Michael Sloan its for people who like to use earbuds or headphones for their music. Microsoft is thinking your system is plugged into your TV
The have one on the xbox one x
man every Australia accent I come across in a tutorial they're always right
Haha. Cheers
I’m Aussie and I can smell a kiwi,
@@RNhool haha. You are right. I'm in New Zealand.
Thanks man I never knew it was this easy for years had a monitor and never knew I could play without a headset until now took a two minute search to find out this whole time🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
All good. Pleased the video helped you out. I'm forever looking up stuff on RUclips to help me out too. Cheers 👍🏻
Thanks man. Just like you said, not all of us have the cash for expensive speakers. Great video, I appreciate videos where people are realistic about what most people can afford.
Awesome. Appreciate the feedback. Yeah I'm not into spending extra $$$ if there is something else that can work with what you already have. Thanks for stopping by. Cheers 👍🏻
bro I love you! I have been trying to figure this out for so long and the solution was right under my nose the whole time
+Ben Caggiano Hey, no problem. I'm glad the video helped you. Cheers and thanks for your comment.
Thanks so much! Been trying loads of different methods using adapters and stuff. All it took was an aux lead into the controller 😂 thank you
That's great to hear this helped you out. Cheers 👍🏻
THANK YOU!! My husband got an Xbox One and we could not figure out how to hook up the sound to our speakers!! He is absolutely excited now!!
That's great to hear! I'm glad the video helped you out. Cheers 😊
Thanks bro..I like that figure setup too..huge RE and Terminator fan
Thanks. They are pretty cool figures. Cheers
It's as easy as 1,2,3 guys. Works for me, thank you I've been struggling with this for movies since December!

Hey that's great to hear it helped you out. Thanks for letting me know. Cheers Dino
Watched this video to realize i had already seen it and forgot.. lol.. i consider myself a techie guy and it never occurred to me to use the jack on the controller.. thank you!! i like ideas that can save me money too ;)
Awesome. I'm glad it helped you out. Cheers 👍
Those who are curious how to fix the USB problem plug that into the monitor as the other cables in the controller. It worked instantly for me.
Thanks for sharing your advice. Much appreciated. Cheers 👍🏻
Thank you, you are a legend sir
No problem. I'm pleased the video helped you out. Cheers
Thanks so much, was really struggling haha

Nice one. I'm glad it helped you out. Cheers
You are a LEGENDARY bro!!! big thanks!!
Glad to be of help. Cheers Dino!
I have to do Step 1 unfortunately, which means I cant use party as I used to. However, it happens that I have Logitech speakers on my pc, so this turned out to be very helpful. Thank you very much
No problem at all. Yeah it's a shame you can't use party, but usually you'd be wearing your headset for that anyway. Glad you got sound set up through your logitech speakers. Cheers
Dude this helped me soooo much man thank yoi
+CHARLIE VB Brilliant. Glad it helped you out. Cheers!
Thank you so much
This is so helpful thank you
Glad it helped you out! Cheers Dino
The old times come back .....
Fh2 was so nice 🤩
Great game alright. Still waiting for someone to remaster test drive unlimited. One day hopefully. Cheers
Thank you man
Happy to hear you found the video useful. Cheers
OMFG THANK YOU SO MUCH U EARND A SUB WITH POST NOTIFICATIONS
No problem. I'm glad it helped you out. cheers
Thank you so much!
No problem at all. I'm glad it helped. Cheers
man I wish It works with usb speakers
Nice one Dino Cheers
+Strat Beer Thanks Strat! Cheers
thank you !
No problemo! Cheers
Basically the easiest and cheapest way haha. Thanks a lot!
+Zhaojun Yan Glad it helped out. Cheers
Awesome video Dino. Could also play the tunes from library if saved some. To be even cheaper you can split the AV leads apart from the back of TV(yellow stays in TV and red and white into AUX input of stereo )I know it used to work on old TV s some newer ones only work with all 3 plugged in. But anywho great info and keeps everything tidy. Cheers
Thanks. The biggest problem with Xbox one is it only has HDMI and optical outputs. There's no rca outputs at all. No issues if you have a TV, but lots of monitors have tiny or no speakers.
+TubeDinoz True. I'm a bit behind the times lol. I still got a PS and a PS2 which have rca
+Rookie Brew All good. I think Microsoft forgot some people want to be able to hook up basic stereo speakers
nice one dino do the same thing myself cheers dude
+flat beer It seems very straight forward, but I see people with videos, saying to connect an optical to rca converter. This might be a better option, but it costs a bit. Hopefully someone finds it useful. Cheers!
you rock man!!
I'm glad it helped you out! Cheers 👍🏻
This does work, but it's not as loud as when I used a regular aux cord to play my 360 threw my old stereo 👍
Get a better amp, something to boost
Thanks... yes i saw. but why does microsoft do it like this? Why cant i do it like Sony where the red and white input jacks go from the stereo to the tv?? because now you have to sit with the irritating cable in your controller while playing. Do they do it on purpose? because my tv doesnt have an aux input too.
Yeah. I'm not sure. I often have my controller plugged into the stereo. I sit quite close so the cable doesn't have to go too far. Cheers
I might get the Logitech speakers. I was looking for something with decent sound quality when watching movies, do you recommend them?
Nice one. My speakers are getting pretty old now. I can't even remember how long I've had them as this video is about 5 years old. I'm not up to date with the new logitech speakers but I imagine they are a lot better than the ones I have. Maybe check out a few RUclips reviews on the model you're looking at first. Cheers and thanks for watching
Thank you
Glad it helped you out. Cheers
my stereo doesn't have the two audio outputs, its only got an aux cable port
thanks m8!
No problem. Glad it helped. Cheers
It does work. Plug the usb in Xbox, and the green in headset jack. Make sure the volume panel on the controller is turned up(that was my issue) and make sure your speakers are turned on.
Thanks for your help. Much appreciated. Cheers!
So normally you would just plug the aux cord in the speaker then in the tv/ monitor and it should work?
well my tv only has digital audio output, so for the 5.1 speakers i guess i need to buy a digital audio decoder or something like that.
You have a monitor , will this still work with an actual tv?
Do you think i coud connect it to the logitech z506 5.1 System ?
If it has an input for a 3.5mm lead, then I don't see why not. It's probably only going to come out in stereo, but I could be wrong. Worth a shot if you have a lead handy. Pretty cheap to buy, if you don't. I wouldn't mind if you can let me know how it goes. Cheers
Thks buddy it worked Fine for me :)
Finn Bals did you get surround sound or just stereo?
i hope its 5.1. becuase i want to use mine z506's for my racing sim.
Just so you know in the first one turn the volume up on the controller adapter to actually get sound I thought it didn’t work until I tried this tequnicke
Thanks for the advice. Cheers
what is that thing plugged in to the bottom of your controller? i'm trying to plug logitech speakers in, but the cord won't fit because it is a different shape
It's a headset adapter for older controllers that didn't have the 3.5mm jack. You'll need a cable with a 3.5mm plug which goes to your speakers.
So cool tanks
No problem. I'm glad it helped. Cheers!
With option 1, is there a way to use a microphone as well as getting sound to your external speakers?
You would probably have to use some sort of audio splitting device. I haven't really looked into myself. Sorry. Cheers
My stero only has two audio output. Can i use rca to hdmi cable? Connect rca ends to my stereo and hdmi to 'HDMI IN' in the xbox one.
No. That won't work. The audio need to be going from the Xbox to the stereo. You can't use outputs on the stereo. Cheers
@@tubedinoz so whats the solution my friend?
If your stereo has no audio inputs then there is no solution other than buying some cheap desktop speakers as shown in my video with rca audio inputs. Cheers
Ok take your 1st option now tell me the best way to add a bass speaker to this setup. I am thinking of splicing in the wires and add the bass to existing speaker?
That sounds like a way to go. I'll no expert on how that would work, but it seems like it would work.
Legend
Glad it helped you out. Cheers 👍🏻
Hi I wounder if anyone can help. I did this on my speakers but I can hear sound but all voices are muted
What the hell is ri out for i tried to plug headphones in it and it fits but does not have sound.
Hey, any idea if the stereo adapter is required? I have the new controller which has a 3.5mm port but doesn't work when going directly from the controller (without the adapter) to the speakers.
+Jeremy Knowles Hi. I've only tried it with the adapter as I have one of the original controllers. It should work straight from the 3.5mm port on the new controllers. What type of speakers are you connecting to? Are they powered speakers? Cheers
Can I have some help please, I have a 5.1 surround sound and HDMI and toslink aren't an option as my receiver has no toslink port. Also my receiver has no HDMI port. It has an AUX however which works fine with my iPhone but not when I plug it into my controller? I have the new 3.5mm controller as well guys. Help would be much appreciated
Sorry I'm not sure I can help you. I just used a cable like this one. www.pbtech.co.nz/product/ITPAK243/DYNAMIX-STEREO-CABLE-35MM-PLUG-TO-2X-RCA-Male-2M-L
Would this work if I did it with a JBL flip 3 and plugged the aux in?
Don't see why not.
I've tried using a 2nd ps4 controller to connect my 3.5mm pc speakers to in order to not have to deal with the cable while gaming on the 1st controller, and it doesn't work. Now for xbox one, before I purchase a 3.5mm controller adapter could someone please let me know if I will be able to use the 2nd controller just for audio to pc speakers and use the 1st controller for regular gaming?
I've been trying to figure that out to except my gaming controller for headset to
nice to know thanks...
Cheers!
Thanks this help me with my one s i been trying to get the sound to come in for months
That's great to hear. I'm glad the video helped you out. Cheers
Will have to get an Xbox to try it out 😂😂😂 still got the first Xbox upstairs gathering dust.
+Steve Moulson The first Xbox will become an antique one day! I wish I still had my first computer (Sinclair ZX-81 and the Spectrum). You can't find them very easily now and they are getting quite expensive to buy if you do. Cheers!
Thanks, my speakers blew the other day so this helped alot.
But the sounds cuts out sometimes when I'm playing a game from moving the controller do you know why?
Hi. No problem. Glad this video helped a bit. The only thing I can think of for the noise breaking up might be a loose or faulty wire?
@@tubedinoz Seems to happen with my headset too, could it be the remote?
Not too sure to be honest. Sorry
Is there no way to use a second controller just for audio?
Thanks
No problem. Glad it helped. Cheers Dino!
+TubeDinoz 👍😎
THANK YOY
I'm please to hear it helped you out. Cheers Dino
Hermano te amo!!
It's great that you found the video useful. Cheers
Smart and cleaver, can I ise the same first metod but in controller number 2 that way I wont have the the cable in controller nimber, is it possible to obtain sound from controller #2, thanks mister!!!!!.
Jeepers. I'm not sure about that. Never tested it, but sounds like a great plan! Definitely worth a go. Let me know how you get on. Thanks
Hey man do you think that it messes with the controller. Because I’ve been doing this for a bit now like month or two but then my controller last night turned off and gotta kinda warm, it like over heated . Idk if it’s just a malfunction of the controller or my rechargeable battery’s or if it’s cuz I’m plugging a speaker into the controller ? Have you had any similar problems ?
And the controller totally fried won’t stay on for more than a minute so I went and bout a new one and don’t know if I should continue using this method
Hi. I haven't had any issues. Probably the main difference is Ive mainly been using a long USB cable to the controller for power, instead of batteries in the controller. Hooking the controller up to speakers rather than a headset shouldn't affect the controller at all as all you're really doing is rerouting the audio signal. Cheers
Wait so can you just sign in a second controller and use it as a bridge , ??
Not sure. I haven't tried that.
Will this work for the z506? the 5.1 version.
I'm not sure, but you'll probably only get stereo and not surround. Cheers
Please answer... So only way to get sound is like that? Because i have a very old surround system... So i need to have the adaptor to plug in my controller from the 2 red and white thingy? Plz i need feedback
Hi, if you pause the video at the 1:18 mark, it shows the cable you need if your old surround system has the red and white audio input jacks. The cable has a 3.5mm stereo jack at one of the cable, which goes into your controller and then the other end of the cable splits out into the red and white rca jacks, which plug into your stereo. Cheers
Thanks... yes i saw. but why does microsoft do it like this? Why cant i do it like Sony where the red and white input jacks go from the stereo to the tv?? because now you have to sit with the irritating cable in your controller while playing. Do they do it on purpose?
My speakers are making a loud high pitched noise when I plug them into my controller how do I fix that
It'll be either damaged wiring or the 3.5mm connector you're using to plug into your controller is damaged. Another thought,are you running your controller with batteries or powered from a USB cable? Sometimes a controller powered with a USB cable can cause a noise. Sorry that's about all I can think of. Cheers
Go to sound setting and change the mic monitoring
Thanks for the tip. Cheers
I have a speaker but when I plug it in the controller it doesn't work. I'm wondering if it's that big fat thing you plugged in your controller
Hi. Is it a powered speaker? The speaker needs to have it's own power or battery supply. I also did a quick video for people that don't have the adapter that I have plugged into my controller. Here is a link. This might help. Cheers - ruclips.net/video/EcsWpLJKlgw/видео.html
Would it not work if you plugged it into the jack at the back of the console?
Adam Pasha i tried and it wouldn’t work
Would this be a simple way to play music CD's using my Xbox one s through my receiver which only has rca inputs in the back? It has a 3.5 mm input in the front..... Could I use that with a male to male 3.5mm cord from the Xbox controller?
I don't see why this wouldn't work. You're basically re=routing the audio you would hear in a headset to a receiver. Cheers
TubeDinoz That would be great for my needs. Thanks for this video. Glad I found it. It offers a simple method to get the Xbox audio coming from real speakers.
No problem. I hope it works. Cheers
would this work with the Xbox One Stereo Headset Adapter attached to a controller?
Yes it does. That's what I use. Cheers
Thaaaaaanks!!!
+Octavio Fraschilla Gruc No problem. Cheers
I connected an auxiliary cable from the controller to the front of the stereo but the volume is weak.
I'm assuming you've already adjusted the volume on your stereo. Have you checked the output volume from your xbox? Under Select Profile & system > Settings > General > Volume & audio output
@@tubedinoz yes. I forgot to take this post down for I found it right after I made it. Thank you though. I went to the headset volume which by default is at the middle. I raised it all the way and it sounds good now.
@@nxs6musique140That's great you got it sorted. Cheers
Oh shit that worked
Awesome. I'm glad it helped you out. Cheers
though you could do it from your xbox and not the controler the controler with the headset on consume the batery very quickly
I'm not sure. I'll have a look into it. I'd suggest maybe using a USB cable to power the controller if you are connecting the controller to speakers. Cheers
what is the song at the end called? The one in the outro.
+Boomyoudead! Not sure. It was a free outro I found on RUclips. Search free outro and it should come up. Cheers
+Boomyoudead! not sure if ya found it yet... but its called "coming home" by "sirensceol"
Hey man, I’m getting a monitor for my birthday and I need to connect my Xbox to it. So my monitor doesn’t have an audio Jack. It just has an RGB In, A few HDMI ports and a DC14V.
My goal is to get audio from my Xbox to speakers (not headphones.) The video is perfectly working but there is no audio. So where can I plug in my external speakers? (The speakers have 1 audio Jack and 1 usb.
Can you please tell me how to connect the usb (or jack) to the Xbox?
Any help would really be appreciated I’m feeling really down man. If you have any questions to ask I promise I’ll respond in no time.
Thanks!!
Hi. Can you run a 3.5mm audio cable between your controller and speaker input jack? That's really the only way.
@@tubedinoz I’ve tried it. No sound. Could be something I need to change in my audio settings?
Are the speakers powered? If not they may not be able to amplify the audio signal from the controller. Also check this out to adjust audio volume on the Xbox ruclips.net/video/yzIt7tU59ZM/видео.html
@@tubedinoz maybe it’s the speakers. Just noticed they do not have a power plug. But when I plug the USB into the Xbox it makes a crackling sound. I’m quite confused
Sorry not sure what else you can do apart from trying some other speakers.
What if the cable is too short?can it go in the back of the Xbox somehow?
Unfortunately there's no 3.5mm stereo jack on the Xbox one itself. Has to plug into the controller. Cheers
can we use the new controller with the built in 3.5mm jacj
You sure can. Cheers
This didnt work for Me! Are you using an "ELITE" controller sir??
+vellstorm4705 No, it's just a standard controller with the headset adapter. Should work as it's just a standard stereo jack. Cheers
It worked, kind of.. The sound is very weak and low.
Got any ideas how to fix it?
Whatever the cable is going into needs to be able to amplify the sounds or signal. I'm guessing the volume was turned right up on the controller or xbox? Cheers
kay hoorn happened to me too but I plugged in headphones into the speaker and pressed the home button and went to audio in the xbox settings
Bit late, but go in into settings, audio then turn you headset volume all the way up
I tried this but it did not work. My speakers are not Logitech but they still have the green cord. Can someone help me.
All I can think of is are the speakers powered?
What about Toslink to 3.5mm adapter?
No experience with that myself, but that might work.
I did this and I plugged my speakers Into my controller and now I can’t hear anything when I plug my headphones in, it doesn’t even show that my headset is plugged In... any help?
I can't think why your headphones won't work now. You're basically just replacing one cable with another and redirecting the audio. Audio not turned down through settings on the console? Sorry that's about all I can think of
you need to rub sauce on your controller it helped me ;)
Do u need the thing at the bottom of the the controller to do it?
No. Check out the video description. There should be a link to another video. You just need to adjust the volume on your console instead. Cheers
@@tubedinoz K thanks
How much was the adapter on the controller? btw great video, saved the day
Hi. I had a quick look at they are about $25 USD. Thanks for watching. Cheers!
thanks man! keep it up
Is the "IR OUT" port on the Xbox One S / Xbox One X count as an AUX?
Hi. I had to look it up, but no IR out is not an auxiliary. It's something to do with infrared and being able to control your Xbox with a remote? Cheers
@@tubedinoz Alright, thx for the information 😊
im using an xbox 1s digital but it wont work
