Have you tried calling Creative Customer Service (not Technical Support) at their 800 number? If you have serial numbers for the card and the speakers, at least in the past it would be sent free of charge. You do have DTT2500 speakers, as those are really the only ones that adapter really was appropriate for, AFAIK? If you're just talking about using the RCA side of things, you really just need a mono cable with a miniplug on one end and an RCA plug on the other. Technically, an ordinary audio adapter cable of that type is the wrong impedance, but will probably work despite that. For a better match you can adapt a 75 Ohm video cable, RCA-plug on each end, or any cable audio stores sell for digital connection, by adding Radio Shack part # 274-330, or similar, to one end and plugging that end into the SBLive digital jack. (You can see a picture of the adapter by searching at http://www.radioshack.com for that part number.) -Dave dwh@cfcl.com
