Regarding the sound, I think you should use an audio amplifier since the 
sound output pin provides a low level signal.  Try your local Radio Shack,
they should have an inexpensive kit for one.  I personally use a stereo 
synthesizer hooked up to a stereo amplifier.  You should here the difference
it makes.  Also, you will get a better picture on your monochrome monitor 
if you use the luma pin instead of the composite video pin as input to the 
monitor.
