I hooked the sound on my line-in on my PC soundcard. and Bought a KVM-switch to switch between PC and X-box 360. My PC needs to be on for the sound, but mine is almost always on so that is not a problem for me.

I love my 19 inch widescreen, great clearity, just use a stereo switch for changing the sound back and forth, the only bad thing is my screen wont take the wierd res that comes out of the 360 at max res. 1360x768 only put it out at 1280x768, but still fantastic picture cant wait to see if they will be able to put out a dvi signal

26" cheapo LCD WXGA Joytech VGA cable sweet as fcuk @1280X768

only thing is backwards compatibility sucks with VGA puts a 4:3 ratio on the 16:9 display although splinter cell chaos theory is amazing at 720p and aa 4 times.

your audio can be output to anything best option is to get a surround system and enjoy high def audio as well.
