is this the appropriate cable to connect a computer headphone output to a single monitor (speaker) even though it would be a stereo output and a mono input?

Probably not. I bought this cord to connect my microphone to my computer. If it would even connect to your speaker the sound quality might suffer. I would think you would want an 1/8 to 1/8 inch cord. That is usually the standard size unless your monitor has a different type of connector.

Absolutely. For a standard computer headphone out connector on your computer, you'll need a standard RCA to 3.5 mm stereo (TRS) audio cable like the "Monster IP400-.75M Male Stereo Mini to Male Stereo RCA Cable Adapter" [[ASIN:B0002EQVMK]] or "Mediabridge 3.5mm Male to 2-Male RCA Adapter (6 Feet)" [[ASIN:B004YEBK66]].

Of course, i have mine plugged directly to my computer so it's a 3.5 mm standard headphone jack, but the monitors need 1/4, RCA, or XLR. I chose the 1/4 to 3.5mm, i bought these ones and are great: Hosa CMP159 Stereo Breakout, 3.5 mm TRS to Dual 1/4 in TS, 10-Feet-Esteban

That would depend on what you mean by speaker, but chances are no. This is for hooking a TV or Stereo into a device that has a headphone jack--like a phone, or a computer. If you want to connect your stereo/audio system to your TV, then something like "Hosa Cable CRA202 Dual RCA To Dual RCA Cable - 6.5 Foot" would be more likely to work. By speaker do you mean an audio system? A speaker alone can't really do anything If it is an audio system, what is the brand model number you are trying to use? What model number is your TV? If you can give me that info I can give you a better answer.

These cables do not split into stereo. I do not know your situation (ex. rca males to females, # of outputs, etc.) I use them (2) to split both mono sub preamp outputs to 2 powered subs on both left and right sides for a total of 4 subs : 1 in each L and R corner. (I like my low end to sound like the hand of god). If your outputs and inputs match up, they should work as long as you are going analog to analog or digital to digital.

Most speakers use a different connection for audio so I don't think this cable would be best for that application, based on the speakers that I use.

I've never try this cable for connecting speaker..but I used this cable for microphone input for kraoke system..

Nope. This cable only splits one audio out into two. Maybe it's possible to use this on a mic plug, but both plugs would only input audio. If your computer does not have separate Mic jack, then what you probably need is a USB Mic. Sorry :P

Audio is always seperate from a normal VGA Cable for most computer monitors. But this cable has a stereo audio cable built right in. Run it to your TV, projector, etc. and the audio can be sent right with it. For lengths of ten feet or less, audio will probably be fine. Adjust audio output levels on computer, be sure you're using the proper output jack (usually NOT the head phone jack!) On TV, etc., be sure you are using the correct input jack. If you hear audio hum or buz, check all connections, system settings. Be certain all equipment is well grounded. If buz or hum continues, you may need a preamp, or media system updates or up grades. Consult manufacturers, professional service technician. Audio is always seperate from a normal VGA Cable for most computer monitors. But this cable has a stereo audio cable built right in.

If the PC speakers have RCA type jacks on them then this cable should work, but most PC speakers already have a cable that will plug directly into your computer. This cable would normally be used to connect the line output of your computer to a stereo amplifier or the output of an audio device such as a mixer or receiver to the line input of your computer.

It would depend on your computer settings. If you send only L signal than only the left would output. If you set your computer to mono than you will get the same mono signal on both outputs. The result will match your headphone output.

I think your hookup is bass ackwards. The audio should run via ARC or Audio Return Channel from your monitor to the Somy headphone. I believe this is done via Toslink.

I'm assuming you mean that you want to use this cable to chain two amplified speakers together. If that's not correct, please clarify and I'll alter my response. But, in my opinion, I'm not sure if this configuration will work. I would assume that your speakers have a female XLR for the input. Due to that fact, I'm not sure if this would work if you were attempting to daisy chain the speakers in line. However, if you were trying to run two separate lines from a single output of a soundboard (assuming it was a mono output or you are running two left or right channel speakers for some reason), this should work. The point being, the input signal into this cable should be the female end, and the output signal should be coming out of the two male ends.

correct. The monitor sends on each channel give you flexibility but there is no onboard amplifier for monitors. It may be possible to use the stereo amp and split L & R with one side dedicated to Mains and the other to monitors. You would need to explore that possibility.

Thats exactly what i use it for and it works great. The only thing you have to remember is that it will turn. your stereo signal into a mono signal, which most would find unacceptable for headphone monitoring in a studio scenario but if you just want to rock out in your headphones it will work in reverse alot more comfy than the bulky adapters you would get elsewhere.

You can use any sound card you'd like. There are a wealth of inputs and some accept more than one type of connector. I think that for optimal sound, you should use a source with balanced output over XLR. This would be ideal, and any professional level SoundCard, or mixer for that matter, should offer a balanced output via 1/4" or XLR cable connection.

Yes, it's only mono. The output is on an 1/8" jack so you'll either need an adaptor or an 1/8" to 1/4" cable to be able to hook it up to your amp.
