Sentacotus Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 So I got these USB powered speakers for Christmas and they work great but I can't hook them up to my monitor because it only takes AUX input. The reason I'm trying to do this is because my Wii U is hooked up to my monitor using the HDMI slot. Does anyone have any experience with this or know how I can get these things working off the monitor? Any help is appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 (edited) i've never HEARD of an audio male USB female adapter but if you can get your hands on one of those that should (operating word: should) do the trick. otherwise you're sol as far as i know :( EDIT: does the wii u accept usb speakers? i know it has usb ports...

I'm going to check best buy tommarrow to see what I can find. Worst case I just get some cheap AUX speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Integrity Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 yeah doing some brief reading it looks like USB speakers have some driver-related (probably) issues with going USB->AUX, so you're probably sol personally i just use the wii u pad's built-in speakers for my wii u stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sentacotus Posted December 25, 2014 Author Share Posted December 25, 2014 Yeah the only problem with the gamepad is that for some games the sound only comes out of the TV/Monitor. Oh well its not like AUX speakers are all that expensive or hard to get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
