Using Old ONKYO speaker as sound output from Monitor

Brandon9997 · July 12, 2020

Hey guys! So recently my dad gave me his old speaker/amplifier system that doesnt support bluetooth. It only has an (I guess) 3.5mm headphone jack and a USB for input (see attached pics)

now im using my pc Monitor (Acer XB271HU) as a screen for my PS4 via HDMI cable and my monitor has a 3.5mm audio jack behind it.

my question is, are there any ways to connect the old speaker/amplifier system to my monitor for sound input? Thanks a lot for the responses

PS: i was thinking if i could connect the audio jack from my monitor to the audio jack of the speakers but i dont know if that would work lol

Your best bet would be to use a 3.5mm to RCA cable. Hook the red and white cables into the back and you'll be set. Check out the manual for this receiver here to read about the different inputs.
