Xbox 360 ,sound question

yoshytoshy · 2009-10-29 07:47:29

Going to try and get a 360 later today ,but theres just one thing thats bugging me. I noticed from pictures of the 360 online ,you can connect a toslink cable for surround sound. Is it possible to use the toslink cable for sound ,while using the hdmi cable for picture ? Thanks.

yes, but you need to either use the dongle that comes with some of the elites, or else mod the component cable to allow you to use both the connectors at the same time. you basically remove the plastic cover on hte component cable so that both the component connector and the hdmi connector can fit in at the same time.

without either of the above the hdmi connector and component connector will not fit in at the same time
