How to hook up Xbox to an older TV?

Old surround sound receiver how do I hook it up to my xbox and new tv?

  • Is it possible to hook my surround sound receiver straight to my tv and hook my xbox up with an hdmi cord to the tv? Or do I have to hook the xbox up to the receiver then to the tv? ...show more

  • Answer:

    If the receiver doesn't have a digital optical input (This is for the sound coming from the TV), and the needed HMDI inputs (For devices such as hidef disc players, game systems), and outputs (To send the hidef signal to the TV), then you cannot do what you want. A modern receiver equipped with digital optical and HMDI inputs/outputs starts at around $200. Spend the cash.

I had the same issue. I had an old surround sounds but was only able to hook it up to the TV not the Xbox. I even went to best buy and they sold me this dumb cable that I found out was nothing to do with what I asked. I would go to radio shack and ask or best buy. I know there's cable you will need to buy
