Hi,
My laptop computer supports 5.1 surround sound (at least the manual says it
does), but does not have separate outputs for each of the speakers. It does,
however, have a digital coaxial output - would this output all of the
individual signals for each of the speakers? If so, is there any device that
could split this digital signal into the six analog signals that I need to
connect a 5.1 surround sound system?
Thanks,
Rich
