I had some old logitech Z-560's and the amp went out on me. I hooked up some outdoor speakers to the system along wit the 4 otehr speakers, so i figure I managed to destroy the amp in it. The sub has speaker wire connections for its satalite speakers. So my speakers wen tou tandi needed nother set not knowing if I really did destroy the old ones by adding more speakers. They were having trouble before and are 4 years old. So i go out and buy the Z-5300e's and boy was ai surprised at hte connections on the back are not speaker wire connections but a single jack. Now i am pissed and cant connect my outdoor speakers to my new speaker sets.
So my question is Does Creative make a sound card with a front hook up that I can connect say an reciver to it and connect my outdoor speakers to it. I would liek to be able to controll the sound from the pc and be able to use my extensive music collection that is on my pc. I have a remoe i an change songs with while outside. The reciever is just there to send the signal to the speakers since i cant connect them to my Z5300e's. Am i crazy? Which setup would you recommend using which card? Sound quality is important but I will be limted by costs. I like music but I dont need the top of the line stuff as you can see by my current speakrs.
