TV Sound Problem

Name: Anonymous 2006-01-28 21:02

I have a 13" Orion TV that I'd like to use for playing Halo with my buddies. Problem is that when I use headphones on it, I only get sound from one side. I can't find an option to change between mono and stereo or anything like that. Any help would be appreciated.

AFAIK, Orion doesn't make a 13" stereo TV.  Just about any TV that size is going to be mono sound only.  Check the inputs on it, if it only has one audio jack, you're not gonna get stereo out of that set, even if you use headphones.  The only way to get it would be to take the audio jacks straight from the Xbox and put them in a seperate receiver, like a home theater setup.  Hell, even some decent bookshelf stereo systems have RCA audio jacks.

Is there any plug I can buy to connect on the TV and then my headphones to make it stereo?

Buy? No, probably not. Make? Yes, after a fashion. You could quite easily make a short lead that connects the single audio output to both earpieces to give you dual mono, but that's not proper stereo. You won't get stereo sound out of a mono TV because the audio circuitry won't be designed to process stereo at all.

Dual mono is good enough for me. It's just really annoying hearing from one side only. Is there a site that teaches how to do this procedure?

Forgot to mention my TV also has the yellow and white RCA jacks. Anything I can do with those?

Yellow is composite video, white is audio. Don't connect headphones to the yellow one.

Those are probably inputs, not outputs.

Don't change these.
