Does the HP Pavilion 20xi Monitor Support sound? What monitors do support sound?

No speakers on the monitor, so I am using separate ones. But I do love my monitor!

The monitor has an HDMI input only, but it does work just fine out of the box. Be aware, there are no speakers, headphone jack or sound capabilities. I'd recommend you await the newer model: MMT Monitor2Go FHD - though it's currently unavailable.

I am not sure of the sound is is carried through the HDMI port. I do know that 1080p video is carried through the HDMI port. The monitor does have both a audio optical port input and standard audio 1/8 mini port input. Don't think there is any problem with using this monitor with a NVidia 780 GPU.

No. The only input to the monitor is a VGA port. It does not support RCA, component, DVI, or HDMI. There is also no integrated sound.

No speakers with this monitor. You will need to use an external sound system.

Mine works fine. Does your computer support audio output through display port?

Yes, you are right. It does not have speakers. I should have been more careful in my selection because I actually wanted speakers :). I like the monitor a lot though and using DVI I am still getting 1080...at least as a setting, rather in fact or not, I could never tell.

This computer has a built-in sound capability but you still must have external speakers, either built-into the monitor or separately attached. Separately attached speakers connect to the mini-speaker port on the back of the unit, the green port. If your speaker has built-in speakers, and you use an HDMI cable, sound should come from the built-ins. This assumes that sound is enabled in setup and the volume is up high enough to be heard.Hope this helps...

nope, nothing to do with the monitor, it's just that dvi does not support audio.

I just bought this monitor and wanted audio too. What do I have to do to get audio?

I have never gotten the sound to work on my monitor, but I am using an NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660. You do need to have the USB cable coming out of the back of the monitor going into your computer to get the touchscreen feature to work. Took me a few hours to discover that.

I can't answer for every kind of motherboard, but mine sounds great without a sound card. And I run it without any equalization at all.

Yes that is how I use my laptop on my monitor that has DVI. Although you will need something else for sound, but if your device w/ the DVI port has a aux. in port (headphone jack) then just use that for sound or hook up an external device for sound.

I think the sound hardware is integral to the mother board. When I had the box open there was no sound card that I could see. As to what the chip set is please ask HP that. Any sound is likely to be low end. My wife used the machine and she is not a critical listener. She understood it was low end and was satisfied with that. I didn't intend to answer until I thought a bit about it. Hope this helps.

A quick google search suggests that this laptop unfortunately does not send audio information over displayport. http://h30499.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-HP-ProBook-EliteBook/Sound-on-displayport/m-p/2304377#.UxgP-ze9h5E

Audio is definitely supported. It uses the HDMI cable connection to a TV or monitor with speakers. If your monitor has no speakers, then external speakers and a separate audio card are required to get audio.

Nothing, it unfortunately has no built in speakers or an audio out. It is a gorgeous monitor, but that is the one drawback
