each of those 3 wires carrys 2 sound signals, green=front right/left black=rear right/left yellow=center/subwoofer
The Creative Decoder DDTS-100 is $129.99 retail with free shipping, you can buy it right off their website. I just want to make sure that this will give me True 5.1 audio when I plug my speakers into it and have the Optical going to my PS3. Then set the setting in the PS3 menu to Optical for audio. What 5.1 option would I have to choose though there are 3 different 5.1 options.
That Sony your going to buy is $299.99, by buying this I am getting the same thing for $70 less. I'm not extremely rich like your seem to be and have a budget. I can't spend thousands of dollars on a home theater.

I am not sure, Why would you use converts like that when you can just return the Logitech and get a true surround sound system! I still don't thing it will work well! I have those speakers and they are very weak compaired to my Reciver and 6.1 surround sound system! If I had to guess you would check dolby digital 5.2 and thats it, but I am not sure! If you wont the best quality return your logitech and get a true sourond sound system for $200!
Pleas Post a link to the Creative site!

Where can I get a true audio system for $200, show me and I will return my Logitech I got it about 4 days ago. A system that requires no extras I plug and play sort of thing. I am using HDMI for my PS3 currently but I also have component cables.

Alright then I guess I will be returning my Logitech and getting the cheaper one. Does True 5.1 really sound a whole lot better than Matrix'd stero?

I got mine from EB games, i was browsing there site when i came across them and i was like wow thats a pretty good price for 5 speakers and a sub.. So i called them up and they said they had 1 left so i reserved it and when i got home from school i went and got it.. Funny thing is there was a guy in the store who wanted one but because i reserved he wasn't able to get it.. So yer, that's how i only got it for 30 bucks!

Yes I did, I plugged it into my 360 and my PS3 but I didn't really notice a difference from using the old sound system and the adapter it came with. I played GoW on 360 and Resistance on PS3...

Yup same here? You have a Wii? How do you like it compaired to your 360 and PS3? Dose the Wii have optical out? I am thinking of buying one! I had one, that I got on launch day, but I never opened it, and sold it for $450! Should I go out and buy one?

It doesn't have an optical port nor HDMI. The Wii sucks, graphics are crap, 1 decent game Zelda, its not as good as its made out to be.

It looked fun, I didn't know that the graphics would be so last gen, it got overly hyped.
