I was just thinking to get the el-cheapo Logitech Z506 for RM300 to get 5.1 sound. biggrin.gif

The problem with the Z506 (and most 5.1 computer speakers) is that they only accept analog inputs. The PS3 cannot output 5.1 audio through its A/V port.
Sure the fix is to get a receiver, go from the PS3 > HDMI/Optical > receiver > Z506.

But by doing so, that'd be a waste of money. Not to mention the impedance mismatch from a receiver to a set of cheap computer speakers.

If you are using TV, you can use the RCA output. Of course, this is not the best approach for audiophiles but it still delivers. Hehehe.

RCA = stereo
Z506 = surround.

Is there a TV that has 5.1 analog output that I do not know about? Please share.

Haha not that I know of. But again, soundbar is 2.1.
