Audio component-type thing.

Does there exist a device or adapter, small, that is, like, Female component audio to female mini-stereo output? I don't want some big whatchathingy, either. just a leetle thing. So that I can play my 360 on my compy monitor without needing a fuckin' tuner deal, either. Just a little...you know, whatchathingy. Quality is not a concern, I just want it to work.

Yes. I have several, you'd get them from somewhere like Maplin here but I don't know the appropriate US stores. Do a froogle search for 'phono to 3.5mm jack adapter' (assuming that's what you want) or just drop by a local electronics shop.

Radioshack carries all that.

You know, that seems to be the most elusive thing to find. I had the same problem and could not find one for a few weeks. Web searches didn't help and the guys at a local RadioShack looked at me like I didn't know what I was talking about. But it seems like such a thing should be easy to find. While I was looking, I realized that part of my Logitech speakers are just for that.



A bit overkill, but it works.

I ended up getting a new T.V., but the problem has moved onto other people. :D

Not exactly what you're looking for, but the Dell monitor probably has a jack in the back for the speaker cable.

If you look at rat shack, you could probably find something similar.

Yeah, that and a coupler would work too.

If you're talking about something like this:

then as you can tell from the logo, Radio Shack carries them.
