Where Can I Find External Speakers for My Monitor?

[ExpertAmateur]

I have the Acer GN246HL monitor that I use for my gaming PC.

I have an Xbox 360 next to me that I would like to use, but I cannot seem to get the audio working (monitor does not have speakers). What can I do to hear the xbox games? Are there speakers that I can buy, or am I just missing something such as a method of setup? Thanks.

It has a 3.5mm jack on the back so you can hook up just about any speakers or headphones assuming you are using hdmi.

It might just be me but I can't seem to find it. Can you share any pictures or something that says/shows that this port is there?

I looked through that whole thing and I can not find an audio output.

In between the power and vga. If that's not working, there are hdmi cables or splitters that split with a 3.5mm for audio. Since consoles can't split audio and video between outputs.

Links to those products?

My bad was thinking of converter cables but you can still find it with audio extractors. https://www.amazon.com/ROOFULL-Extractor-Converter-Optical-Splitter/dp/B01LL5RI3Y

Any cheaper ways?
