I use a Creative 4.1 - it has a 3.5mm jack for SPDIF output (so I have a 3.5 to phono converter).

All wired down to the Amp.

Shame we can't get spdif over KAT5 somehow :-)

I would like a sound card that can output digital to connected to a Dolby
Digital amp.

Is the Creative SB Audigy a good card?

If I play VOB files on my PC will the sound output as DD ok?

Can I play DivXs with AC3 this way?

Any advice or recommendations appreciated.
