KarRuptAssassin · Dec 31, 2013

I am currently using an HDMI to DVI cable to connect my ps3 to my HP monitor ( HP w1907 ) and I cant get any sound, any suggestions?

DVI doesnt carry sound I'm afraid

I don't think so but you can always try..
If you want use AV for both video/audio.

Hi,

Best way is through the optical audio connector; SPDIF. If your computer supports SPDIF in/out, you can connect the optical cable from computer to the PS3. Then configure your sound card output options for your speakers.

I was in the same exact boat as you using the HDMI to my DVI monitor and left with no sound

,Then found out a cheap simple solution that works for headphones and speakers

. First you need this cable and you may already have it because it comes in the PS3 box packaging. -http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003U7WCEM/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Then you will need this adapter to allow you to connect a 3.5mm (headphone jack style) plug into the RCA. -http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00A4EFYPI/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Then you're done. However that is all that you need if you are only using headphones. If you want to plug sound into a TV/speaker then you will have to buy this cable to turn 3.5mm female in a male connector with this simple cable. -http://www.amazon.com/iMBAPrice-iMBA-PS-06MM-6-Feet-Plated-Stereo/dp/B009UEAZ84/ref=sr_1_2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1388523831&sr=1-2&keywords=3.5mm+male+to+male+6ft

It works 100% because I have the same exact setup and bought these cables to get sound and works perfectly and was very inexpensive compared to buying a receiver to plug into the optical jack.
