Is this everything I need to connect the optical port on my PS4 to my speakers with analog ports? Specifically, the speakers are Logitech Z623's.

I think so. I use it to connect Apple TV optical port to my old Hi-Fi red/white analog. Hope this help

Does the PS4 have Audio/video component cables (red/white/yellow; or blue/red/green/white/red)? Does your TV have an audio output or an auxiliary 3.5mm input? As long as a system has any of those it IS compatible. Me has no clue, have not researched the PS4, system, but I do believe that it only supports HDMI. Look for any inputs labeled "output" and report back =^)

This didn't work for me. I have a TV with a digital output and a sound bar with rca inputs and optical inputs. I ended up buying a digital to optical converter for twenty five bucks. It works good.

Yes, they work very well with the ps4.*For full PS4™ compatibility you will need to PS4™ System Software Update 1.50 and have stereo output connection from TV or audio receiver for game audio.

Yes, you can plugin and use directly. But the external sound card may not be use because I don't know it need to install drivers on ps4 or not.

If you don't have Optical Out on your PC, you cant connect the Mixer to the using Analog out, only through USB. Although it did have mini PL cable to connect MIC and Sound to (i don't know how it's called) mini PL with 4 wires, it didn't had the same cable to connect it to the Mixer.So basically another "Astro Console Cable" (even with out the mute Mic button) would be nice, if you don't have Optical Out.

You can connect your sound bar to your p3 of 4...it connects via digital optical cable...but it's better to connect your ps3 to your TV via hdmi and your sound bar to you tv as well via the optical cable

You can either connect the PS4 to the soundbar, and connect the soundbar to the TV (use it as a combined audio/video switcher), or you can connect your TV's audio out (ideally optical) to the soundbar and leave the PS4 connected to the TV. I use the second option because I have more than two devices going to the TV, but it's less convenient because you have to switch the audio separately when you change inputs.

This has been my problem too (digital optical/ TOSLINK/ SPDIF compatibility). I think I might go for gaming headsets such as Turtlebeach (PX5 etc) and use it for both games and movies. Plus, they have a digital optical OUT that you can hook up with your home theater/ sound bar system.

To directly answer your question: yes, the HDMI ports are good for PS3 and PS4 and yes, you can use them to add surround sound with audio devices. But I guess what you really want answered is how to connect the audio from your PS3/PS4 to the device while the PS3/PS4 is hooked up to the TV. The answer to that question is simply to connect your TV and PS3/PS4 with an HDMI cable. Then you connect the sound bar to your TV's audio HDMI port with another HDMI cable. Then your PS3/PS4 will play video on the TV and play audio through the sound bar. This is how my systems are set up. You can also set it up where your PS3/PS4 turning on turns your TV and the sound bar on automatically.

Hey Craig-Which optical input connection on the Onkyo receiver did you use to connect the optical cable from your TV? I'm not having success. :-(

Answer number 2 is exactly what I would do. Adapter from RCA analog to Digital optical. I have a Sony 200 disc cd player but lucky for me it has an optical out jack.

Almost! You will need a digital to audio converter first......here is the one I bought.... Orei DA21X Premium Optical SPDIF/Coaxial Digital to RCA L/R Analog Audio Converter with 3.5mm Jack Support Headphone/Speaker Outputs You connect the "Toslink" cable that comes with the converter.......from the TV to the converter. Then you connect the RCA cable from the other end of the converter.....to your sound bar. It works very well......GT:)

Confused on the required cables to connect the analog out to my analog in on receiver. Would standard RCA type cables handle the bandwidth or should I look for premium "digital" ready type? My Sony is on the way to my home.

I was able to hook it up to the PS3 without anything extra to play Rocksmith and it was a little weird, but the audio fed through okay. But you won't be able to have them both hooked up at the same time. Because you can't have surround sound on the PC I keep 2 speakers on my desk and 2 next to the TV. And when I want to use the PS3 I just move the power box thing.But honestly after having this for awhile, it's not the greatest. I mean, I upgraded from some WalMart speakers from 5 years ago, but my brother bought Logitech speakers around 3 years ago for the same price as this and it still trumps these speakers.
