You have a headset, you have a PS3. Now let's combine them and enjoy our games with friends!
There are only a few things you need to do this;
3.5mm Standard Microphone or Headset
A 3D Sound card similar to the one shown in this video
Optional:
3.5mm Extension Cable
Sony Playstation Cable (Composite or Component will work)
Note: The Game sound will NEVER come through the 3D Sound Card, only voice will come through the audio port. The Sound Card is for Microphone only. If you want the voice separate from game sound (for recording purposes or whatever) then set the Output to System Default.
The 3D 5.1 Surround Sound Card will also work with this.

Thanks man! Bought a soundcard for €1,88 and it works perfectly. Didn’t even have to buy an extension cord

[@danielsimon7343]

Ok, I only needed audio to come through my headphones because: 1. Monitor has no audio. 2. Can't afford expensive PS3 compatible headsets. 3. Don't care about chat and using the mic. So I bought: 1. Sony PS3 AV cable. 2. Female to female adaptor. 3. Phono female to male 3.5mm thingy. Went into sound settings and changed it to Scart etc and let it do everything automatic and it worked!!!! I live in the middle east so it took me several days to get this stuff from dodgy shops.

[@alt4_life]

I ended using a 3.5mm headphone splitter as the female to female output connection. It worked just as good

[@RandomVideosAS96]

Please answer this question! If I connect my headset to the female to female end and the 3.5 adapter how will the sound come out? On a TV you use volume controls to make the volume higher or lower but how does this work with the headset? Does sound just come out? How loud? Please answer and thank you for this tutorial.

[@fmeraz37]

I found using my Logitech G933 headset with my PS3 far easier. Wireless sound and mic, didn't need to buy any extra usb dongles or cables or sound cards, just plug the G933 dongle into the usb port of the PS3 and then connect the RCA cables of the PS3 into the included Logitech RCA-to-3.5mm adapter that comes with the headset, then plug the adapter cable into the 3.5mm slot built into the G933 dongle on the front of the PS3. For added fun you could also plug the RCA-to-3.5mm adapter cable into an external speaker sound system WHILE it's plugged into the dongle so sound comes out of both the headset wirelessly and the speakers.

[@Davy15]

Sound comes out of my g933 only in the left earbud how do you get sound to come out of both? I'v been looking all over the place to figure this out the online logitech manual dont help much and my g933 work perfect on pc and ps4 but i just cant get them to work right on ps3 can you tell me maybe how you got the sound settings my ps3 is hooked up via hdmi by the way atm i did try just the rca cables with the ps3 rca cables still only the left earbud working I'm just having trouble figuring this out.

[@fmeraz37]

Davy15 I assume you already have PS3 audio output set to "Audio Input Connector / SCART / AV MULTI". As for other options, update the G933 firmware to the latest build (if the latest version is already installed, force update), use a different USB slot on the PS3, or try a new pair of PS3 rca cables to test if the same problem persists. The fact that the headset works fine on PC and PS4 means it's probably not an issue with the dongle or the headset. Make sure that Audio Multi-Ouput is turned "On" in the PS3 sound settings as well. If all else fails, try setting up the headset with a different PS3. For reference, my PS3 model is the cech-3001a variant.

[@Godzillah]

Great video, I figured this out my own though. Very clear instruction just like what I did, I plug my own micro phone in even better haha. If you got a microphone laying around set it up plug it in and use it to chat.

[@ageskezk591]

BRO REALLY THANKS!

[@Bytorjr1]

got a ps4 and got a ps3 ima switch back for a little while why not? LMAO

[@kaanaslan9514]

To use both audio and chat are these the correct steps??? 1. Connect only the microphone in the sound card then configure it 2. Connect the RCA cables to the adapter then the headphone 3. Going to Video settings, setting to HDMI then audio to RCA will that work?

[@kaanaslan9514]

Thank you because i didn't wanna get lost

[@kaanaslan9514]

By the way can i use the Manhattan 6" audio splitter?

[@izzyhopeunlisted]

one way to use headphones is to use the optical digital out and then find a converter to convert it to 3.5 mm jack. they probly make toughs. or you can also get a converter that will take the hdmi and give you a hdmi out with no audio and a 3.5 mm jack where you can plug in your headphones. incase the other two options in the video don't work :)

This shit saved me, i got a Corsair hs50 headset and it uses 3.5mm jack, so i tried a g633 logitech with usb and it didn’t work, it’s Saturday night and my monitor is a pc monitor without sound. I was screwed, would have to wait until monday to buy an adaptor for 3.5 mm to Usb to try my corsair out, but you said to connect the headset to the monitor or tv, so i checked out my monitor and there was a fucking 3.5 mm jack and now i can play Red Dead redemption at night, i’m very fucking happy right now.
