How have you guys [that own said system] setup your speakers with this system?? And hwhat type of speaker system do you use with it? Anyone out there that use Game Theather XP in conjunction with Creative Inspire 5300 or similare 5.1 systems? If so - how have you set it up? (What cables and ports do you use?) -- ed_
Hey Ed, I use the Hercules Gaming Theatre XP 6.1 with a Monsoon 5.1 system. The outputs on the breakout box go to the multiple inputs on the sub. (center/sub/frontLR/rearLR) Works very well for me... Although I rarely use the center because it blurs the stereo image for driving. I think that it could be a problem with digital-input only speaker systems. But, I'm not sure... Also, with DVDs, I use Powerdvd which has a software 5.1 decoder. Without that, I would need a seperate decoder box between the GTXP and my speakers. I have considered using two ballsy 2.1 systems since the Herc has pretty flexible outputs.... Good luck with it Ed..... I love the GTXP!

I use the TBSC, which is basically the same card, and I use it with the Klipsch ProMedia 5.1's. Costly, but it doesn't get much better. For the GTXP, you will need RCA to 1/8" Jack Adapters, though. The TBSC uses 1/8" jacks which match the Klipsch harness already. -Larry "Ed Solheim" <edwins[ REMOVE ]@[ THIS ].no> wrote in message news:egpk9.25882$[email hidden]... > How have you guys [that own said system] setup your speakers with this > system??
