No link? I'd like to see it.

Google search didn't turn up anything either.

I deleted the email I received that in, but I couldn't find a link on PURE Digital's site to this either (Press Release or Speakers). The previous system was the ZXR-500 though.

i have a videologic digi-theatre and have just noticed that there are 6 inputs on the back of the sub, one for each speaker. any idea how i could rig it up to my audigy 2? i already have the optical going into the decoder from my pc, but i think if i got leads going from the 3 jacks on the audigy for 5.1 sound directly to the inputs on the sub, i could have 5.1 directsound gaming going on. only problem would be that i would have 2 leads going into each input on the sub (as the decoder uses these inputs already) so i need a solution that would keep the sound clean while splitting each input into 2 inputs sounds like fun if i can get it to work, if i cant ill end up buying the speakers mentioned on the site.

nice site btw, its one of the few websites i check on every day.

What sort of Digi-Theatre is it? Far as I'm aware the Digi-Theatre's only offer 1 analog input & as such are poor for gaming bar with a nForce

its the old digitheatre, no longer advertised on the videologic site but exaclt the same as the non-dts one. the inputs im refering to are on the subwoofer.

there is a thick several pinned cable that goes from the decoder to the subwoofer to carry the sound. this cable splits into a 6 phono lead at the sub-end, to attach to the 6 inputs for the sound channels.

i think it'll work, ill let you know if it does
