QUOTE(Jimsee @ Feb 4 2010, 03:11 PM) well, i'm using a digital cable direct S/pdif to realtek onbard. For movies with DTS its sounds great. Games wise , its sounds not so good for analog 5.1 or stereo. i THINK my Z5500 can do better with a good sound card for movies. and games of coz. any suggestions? where to find the cable?it's different from optical cable right? i think soundblaster is good enough no? im not sure coz im not really an audio expert

As i said, gaming wise is not really good coz its sounds so muffled through my Analog 5.1. ( not spdif) i've been thinking of a Asus XOnar D2x soundcard..

I wanna to hook it up with my ps3 and my viewning are is about 10ft x 12ft. if you use it for watching movies/bluray & games, u won't be disappointed with it. Bad thing about z5500 is that they do not provide a speaker stand for the rear speaker.  . I suggest you hook up the rear speakers on the wall, about 5-7 feet high to create a surround sound ambience. Again, its up to each individual taste. (Tips : Your ear is your best friend ) And finally, don't blame me if ur neigbour report you to police Here's the complete Z5500 review link http://reviews.cnet.com/pc-speakers/z-5500...7-31115626.html

guys n gals. i'm planning to buy z5500 but due to limited space, i intend to use only 3 satellites (2 front n center), it mean 2 more satellites will not be connected (2 rear).
so, is it okay?. will the sound quality reduce drastically?.

Nope. You can use 3 speakers no prob. You lose the surround sound only.
