Also i have sager 5670 laptop, i dont know how to hook this system up when it come.

the laptop have that headphone port, and s/pdif port.
Also microphone port which i dont think will help.

I further search information for this speaker, and i found out since i only have headphone port, i can only use 2/4 channel and not 6 channel (surround)


SIgh.......... ferrari help me hehe i bought this unit already btw, i just need someone to tell me how to hook it up so it could have 6 channel.

Ha ha...

I had those speakers for a while...no BASS to speak of but should be decent enough if you have a small room and sit close to the speakers...

You NEED an external sound card - get the new Extigy (Audigy 2 NX is the name) by creative - that will allow you to use full 5.1 surround sound.

If I remember correctly the 5680 has no 5.1 analog o/p and the speakers accept only 5.1 analog output (3 wires for the input out of which two are capped to prevent damage when not in use).

Hope that helps...hope I havent completely confused you
