A reproduction apparatus and a monitor apparatus are interconnected by one cable connector, which transmits an image and/or audio signal, a first control signal, and a power signal between the reproduction apparatus and the monitor apparatus. A controller in the monitor apparatus generates the first control signal to control the reproduction apparatus and generates a second control signal to control an output unit in the monitor apparatus. The output unit outputs the image and/or the audio signal from the reproduction apparatus as a visual and/or auditory signal in response to the second control signal. A power unit receives the power signal from the reproduction apparatus and supplies power to each component of the monitor apparatus. Thus, the reproduction apparatus and the monitor apparatus can be driven through the monitor apparatus using one remote controller. Similarly, the reproduction apparatus and the monitor apparatus can be driven through the reproduction apparatus using the remote controller.
