Sound for Monitors

[squeak12 10+ year member]

There isnt a way to hook a monitor up to my HU (Kenwood KDC-X679). Is there any way I can hook up an amp and speakers to the monitor. I would use it to hook up an XBOX or PS2. Thanks for any help.

built in speakers on your monitor? ACC in?

you can hook up audio to your kenwood. There is an aux in when you use their adapter... But, I'm not even sure if that's what you're asking?

I was wanting to know if there was anyway to hook a sub and 2 4x6s to a monitor. The monitor would be used for some type of gaming console. Im a complete newb to the world of video in cars as you can tell. Actually if it helps just show me what I need so I can put a monitor in my 97 Expedition to play some games on.

Your problem is that you have a cd player and nothing to play dvds and nothing with aux video input, at the link below you will find nice all in one systems that will work with you head unit and allow you to connect a gaming console.

the yellow rca, from game console goes to screen, red/white rca from game console goes to aux in on your Head Unit, if equiped with AUX

My HU has no AUX input. Just Outputs for SUB, REAR, and FRONT. So if my monitor doesnt have speakers attatched, Im screwed?

If you still cant find the inputs you can simply use an RF modulator to send the signal to the HU via FM signal.

My pioneer HU has a special connector that uses the connector for the cd changer which allows for an aux. audio input. maybe kenwood has the same thing?

That should make it a bit easier.
