jck8r Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 Hello, I need to know today whether or not I may connect my analog Klipsch 5.1 speakers to my SB Live Platinum and be able to get 5.1 Surround Sound (Is digital the only way to get the 5.1 surround?) Please answer so I may cancel the order if it doesn't work, thx. ------------------ ////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy W Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 Yes, we use a SB Live Platinum in the lab. You need either PowerDVD or WinDVD to do the decoding inside the PC. The same goes for most of the 5.1 sound cards. -Andy W Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jck8r Posted August 1, 2001 Author Share Posted August 1, 2001 Thank you so much for the quick response, truly. Do you work for Klipsch, or in an audio studio? Thanks again, I was worried I would have to cancel the sb live plat. order (not the Klipsch), but I am very pleased everything will work out. *sigh of relief* ------------------ ////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ ////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy W Posted August 1, 2001 Share Posted August 1, 2001 By the way, did you order a SB Live Platinum 5.1? or just a Platinum? I was referring to the Platinum 5.1. The Platinum will deliver 4 channel sound and the Platinum 5.1 will deliver 6 channels (counting the sub). Sorry about the confusion. If you ordered the the SB live Platinum 5.1 then you're set. If you look further down, there's a forum specifically for the ProMedia 5.1, and you'll have better luck with your questions in that forum. -Andy W This message has been edited by Andy W on 08-01-2001 at 02:51 PM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
