Hey all,
Need a little help with the following query:
I have a Creative Audigy Value sound card installed in my PC at the moment. I have connected the sound card to an old Kenwood amplifier A-5X with Pioneer CS-205 bookshelf speakers. I have decided to upgrade the amplifier and speakers.
On of my friends is selling his Yamaha receiver (most probably AX-75* series). I have yet to check it out. I will connect to it JBL E80 floorstanding speakers initially and then build a 5.1 system gradually.
My question is, what do I need to do to make the amplifier decode the 5.1 sound? I'm kind of a novice in these matters and therefore would really appreciate if anyone can guide me through this.
Right now the only way I know how to connect an amplifier is through an analog line-out output on the sound card. By connecting the Yamaha this way, will it decode the 5.1 sound itself or does it require to be connected digitally?
I am at a loss with this.
