Not super familiar with this product, but just to confirm what is the suspected correct hook up: You're going from Pinsounds line output (not headphone output) into some aux line level input on the AV system, correct?

Not sure what the *normal* amount of noise on this kind of hookup for these specific games would be. Possible impedance mismatch? Perhaps someone with more experience with these specific products can shed some light on this.

Quoted from cabuford:

I just got a PinSound and want to try this. Did you use the headphone jack to an av amp? You might have a ground loop between the devices, are they plugged into the same AC circuit (you want them to be)

You really don't want to use the headphone out into an A/V amp in most cases, as you will usually be running into some line level input of the amp.

Quoted from TimberOne:

I used the headphone jack out on the pinsound ... I have tested with earbuds and i can hear a little hiss.

The A/V amp is likely to magnify any garbage on it's input ...especially if you dial it up.
