LCD monitor with speakers?

Q. Seems to have problems with my audio card in my PC. Can I get a LCD monitor with built-in speakers to bypass the problem with my audio card?

A. If the problem is with your audio card, different speakers will not help. You need to replace the audio card or fix the problem.

is a LCD monitor with those specification details worth $270.40 Australian dollars / $221.46 American Dollars? I live in australia

A. Is it 20"? The spec is not bad. Rule of thumb when to purchase a new LCD monitor: Contrast ratio should be high, the higher the better (i.e: 1000:1 is way better than 500:1), the lesser the response time is always better (will have smoother graphics when you are watching or playing game), the higher the brightness is also better, and the option to have both analog and digital input is always nice to have and last, the viewing angle, more angle is better if you are looking at bigger screen size. Overall the specs is good. I think it is pretty good buy if it is 20" screen size.

What kind of adapter do I need to buy to hook up my video game consoles to my lcd monitor?

Q. I have acer 24" lcd monitor. No speaker port only a hdmi port. I want to connect my xbox(original), wii, ps2, gamecube, etc. to it. What type adapter do I need to purchase in order play all my consoles using the monitor.

A. It has an HDMI port?

None of the systems you listed have HDMI output.

So you may need to see if you can find a converter for the three-pronged "Composite" signal into HDMI. They aren't common.

How can I add speakers to an LCD monitor?

Q. Currently, my LCD monitor has no speakers. It has a VGA and DVI connection. I was going to connect an xbox to it with an HDMI to DVI connection but I was wondering how I would get sound. Any ideas? The only one I can think of using is Turtle Beach headsets to play sound through there but any other ways would help.

A. If you're using HDMI to DVI connection for your XBox, you'll need to use that little audio adapter thing that plugs into the other video port (not the HDMI port, but the other, larger one you'd use for the component video cable) for audio output to a pair of speakers or surround set.

What are the names of those cords that I can connect to an lcd monitor with speakers?

Q. I have an lcd monitor with speakers installed in them and currently have a cord that connects to my computer that displays everything, but with no sound. Whats the name of the cord that works for audio and visual? Sorry I'm completely ignorant on this topic

A. Err... well, you've asked the question incorrectly, so first I'll answer the question you asked, then I'll give you the answer you're actually looking for.

Coaxial and HDMI cables are typically what's used in consumer products. Both carry audio and video (HDMI > Coaxial).

However, neither of those are what you want.

What you have connecting your computer to your monitor is probably either a VGA or DVI cable (both used for video only, and both are superior to Coaxial and HDMI). What you should look for, however, near the base of your monitor is a small, round, 3.5mm standard audio jack. You can then buy these at Walmart even.

You can call these a "3.5mm audio cable", and here is a picture of one (first result on google images):

How do you plug in earphones to a Refurbished Dell UltraSharp 170 FP LCD Monitor?

Q. I got these earphones for Easter, and I kind find a way to plug them into my PC to work. I tried looking on the computer front, but the slots did nothing. I looked behind my speakers, and they had no earphone slots. My last resort was probably my computer screen. It's a Refurbished Dell UltraSharp 170 FP LCD Monitor and I'm wondering if anyone happens to know how to solve this problem.

A. The back of the computer. The green jack is for output to speakers or headphones. Buy a Y adapter and plug your speakers and your headphones in to that.

Is it possible to use an LCD monitor for a TV?

Q. I would like to purchase a LCD monitor and hook it up to my tivo and some speakers, they are so much cheaper than LCD tvs. Is this possible? Do I need some type of converter? Do LCD monitors all have the same inputs? Help please!

A. It depends on the cable service you got your Tivo hooked up to.

If your cable service is standard-definition (uses coax or composite to connect to a TV), then you can't use a computer monitor.

If you have digital HDTV cable service and the cable box has a DVI or HDMI output, you can use any HDCP-compliant LCD computer monitor to display the HD cable box's video output.

The video signal carried by HDMI is in fact single-link DVI, so a DVI-to-HDMI cable can be used to connect an HDMI cable box to a DVI monitor. And cable boxes ARE TV tuners (which is why they have remotes for changing channels), so the monitor does NOT require a tuner on-board to work with an HD cable box. It merely displays whatever DVI signal the HD cable box is telling it to display.

Since broadcast-quality High Definition TV signals are at least 720p (1280x720 resolution), pretty much any LCD monitor can display 720p, as long as it is HDCP-compliant so it will work with the digital HD cable box.

If you want 1080i broadcast HD, you should get an HDCP-compliant monitor that can display 1920x1080 resolution.

Keep in mind most computer monitors have no speakers. You will have to hook up a separate set of speakers to the cable box to get audio.

Hope this helps.
