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.

This is a very nice one!

I love it, you need to get a optical cable though!

If you rely want a great sound get this!

With that you would run the HDMI cable that you have into the reciver then you would need anouther HDMI cable to run to your TV! That is $300 bucks but it is worth it!

I would get the second one if you have the cash!

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.
