andrusk Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 the yellow one is an spdif port for surround sound coaxial digital out and the orange and purple ones are for surround sound when using a minijack based surround sound system.

Hades25 Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 thank you andrusk think i'll pick this one up over the base model as for the mini jack surround....how does that work ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrusk Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 i havent used one myself but I think you just plug each speaker into a minijack port. Youve got 1 left, 1 right, 1 "surround" right, 1 "surround" left, and one subwoofer channel. I use the spdif to connect it to my home theatre system. But I know you can use those ports for surround sound. Its for the computer surround sound systems, like logitech and stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hades25 Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 cool ... will never use thos ethings but the digital coax is somthing i will use...wonder why they didnt put an optical output on that? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dasterdly Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 I have z640's, and they have 3 plugs. One is left/right channel, center/sub, rear left right. The yellow is SPDIF, as stated before. They have those other audio channel ports there so you don't have to disable mic, and inout for surround sound. Nice feature. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
