Hi all,

I have just moved and I now have a dedicated PC room............ finally :-)

I was looking to put surround sound in there too.

I have a 300w 5.1 set of Sony speakers from a DVD surround system. They are passive speakers so I will need an amp in there somewhere.

I have never had or played with amps before so this is virgin territory for me.

My sound card has 7.1 , mic etc 3.5mm jacks on it.

I do have the option of optical out though this is currently being used by my Tritton headset.

Any advise would be appreciated.

Ed
