    Connecting Promedia to digital out?

    I have an old klipsch promedia 5.1 that I'm not currently putting to use. I just got a new HDTV and it only has an optical audio out. It looks like there are some digital to anolog converts but they all run +$100 Does anyone a less expensive way to connect this speaker set (which has three...

    X-fi Titanium - Link between crackling and console settings

    Thanks for telling me that song has some noise. I'm not cranking the treble as that was my first assumption. I have reduced it and it has helped some. I only have 18 AWG speaker wires on 8 ohm speakers. Could this be an issue? The front wires aren't more than 10ft so I'm doubting it (I also...

    X-fi Titanium - Link between crackling and console settings

    I decided to disable the x-fi card and use the coax connection to my motherboard. This is also having the same scratching. So now I'm even more confused. Could the receiver be bad (it was a refurbished model)? Could I just have crappy audio cables (they are pretty old)? I've read people...

    X-fi Titanium - Link between crackling and console settings

    thanks for the input. I've figured out a few more things in these past few hours. I switched to audio creation mode and the sound was the worst of the three. However I found the panel for adjusting channel volume. This worked to some degree but I've realized that lowering the system volume is...

    X-fi Titanium - Link between crackling and console settings

    I've had the X-FI titanium fatal1ty since shortly after its release and as many others have complained it doesn't seem to work well with win7 x64. So I was/am getting crackling on various games/youtube clips. I didn't notice it too bad b/c my previous speakers were failing and I just assumed...

    Are you using windows 7 x64bit (or any 64 bit OS) I'm having the same issue with my x-fi titanium fatal1ty. At first I thought it was my new speaker set but have replaced the speakers with a much nicer set/receiver. When listening to high quality audio files they sound great but several youtube...

    New z-5500 speakers sounds crappy

    thank you all so much for the input. Fry's took back the z-5500s without much trouble. Now it looks like my current debate is between the YAMAHA 5.1 RX-V467 and Denon AVR-391 As previously stated the Denon can be found for just under $200 however I found the "recertified" Yamaha on newegg...

    New z-5500 speakers sounds crappy

    No I don't have HDMI Audio From what I'm reading I need a receiver that can plug into the optical port on the x-fi titanium. Am I correct in assuming this?

    New z-5500 speakers sounds crappy

    I tried posting something similar on the logitech forums but only got one person's opinion. I've had the original 5.1 klipch promedia since shortly after there release (I think i paid $400 for them?) They still sound pretty good. One of the 5 speakers is clearly failing and the volume...
