 Careful with this, this is not a Converter. October 10, 2007

I Love my XBOX 360 with it's Microsoft VGA Cable.
Just wanted to Clear this up for people with the older 360's looking to boost their graphics. (This Cable dose exactly what it is meant to do, that is why I give it 5 Stars).
I have a non-HDMI XBOX 360 core system mfg. 7/2007, the picture doesn't show it well, but all this package contains is a Standard HDMI cable and a adapter that connects to the large A/V port on the back of the 360 and goes out to SOUND ONLY.
This WILL NOT Adapt your Standard 360 A/V port to HDMI.
This product only works if your XBOX 360 Already has a HDMI port in the back and it just gives you ports for audio so you can attach your 360 to HDMI and your surround sound receiver. where as with just HDMI cable, the sound is just coming from your TV's speakers.
 Overpriced, but necessary. October 8, 2007

I just got a new 360 with HDMI, and I needed this because I don't have an HDMI-capable sound system. The cable is not that great. I am getting noticeable flicker (brightness flickering) that seems to go away when I switch back to my VGA cable. If Microsoft expects us to drop $50 on their product, they should at least make it top-notch.
 Utterly pointless waste of money October 4, 2007

The HDMI AV kit includes an HDMI cable (which you can find online for about $5.00 if you look around) and the XBox HDMI AV adapter. The reason they sell this kit is because they designed the standard HD-AV (component) cable connector to be too big to work in conjunction with an HDMI cable, so if you want HDMI video -AND- optical or Red/White RCA audio, you have to use this adapter to get the audio connections into the XBox 360's rear port.
...Or so they want you to think.
The truth is that this is just the same connector as the HD-AV cable (Component cable) but it lacks the video connection, and the housing is slightly smaller. No technological wizardry involved. It's just a smaller plastic box, and thus your HDMI cable will fit next to this in your XBox 360's connector port.
You could spend the money for this if you're not very handy. By all means, I'm sure Microsoft needs the money!
OR, you could take a dremel to a used XBox 360 HD-AV (component) cable, cut out some of the extra plastic, and use THAT in conjunction with your HDMI cable.
I take no responsibility for your clumsiness or if you mess up your XBox 360, but I can attest to the fact that a cut-away HD-AV cable works fine for transmitting audio while your HDMI cable transmits video.
So the choice is yours: $50 for this thing, or use your existing cable (the one that came with your XBox 360) and a Dremel, and save yourself some cash.

Works only with xboxes that have HDMI output ports (manufactured around July 07). This kit allows you to connect your xbox to an hdmi input on your TV. It also comes with a special adaptor that allows you to connect an output dongle to the regular output of the xbox. This adaptor allows you to output an optical connection to your sound system separately (for those of you who don't want/can't get their audio through HDMI)
Con: It stinks that you need this. The xbox comes with a connector that has an optical audio output, but this connector is so large that an HDMI cable will not fit into the adjacent HDMI port at the same time.
BEST ALL AROUND!!!! September 21, 2007

These cables rock very hardcore work very well in design, picture, & sound quality. perfect for that HI-DEF experiance that you want in a council and in home entertainment!! easy to setup & install thats why Microsoft rocks over Sony because they get stuff right!!! 5outof5!!!
For all the people who complain stop wineing and suck it up don't post a review to just complain about nonsense no one cares that you don't have the right xbox so it's your fault for being dumb. So don't take it out on Microsoft because like everything xbox this HDMI connectors rock!! These are the best to buy no 3rd party only the origional. JUST BUY THEM YOU WON'T GO WRONG WITH THEM!!! I Give these a 5 out of 5. A slap in the face review from a real gamer not a crying wuss!!!
