Yeah u can. Live 24bit is very good in audio quality. U need to feed it through analog in though. Dont know if live24bit has spdif out.apollyon said:guys!! u did not answer my questions, can i use them with my live 24bit???
Who told u that? If the thing is spdif as the creative site says, it'll work for sure if u get a converter. About the other question, well you yourself can answer it best after trying. Also if you use SPDIF, u'll only get stereo in games and not 5.1. you have to upmix it to 5.1 in the control pod. The only card I know of that can output 5.1 in games over spdif is this:apollyon said:it seems i cannot use the skps with the 3.5mm jack digital out of my live 24bit, so which would be a better option -
1)onboard alc850 coaxial or spdif out
2)analog output of live! 24bit?
Exactly... As I edited in the post above. It'll give 5.1 in ac3 passthrough mode... in dvd movies/dvd-audio. Everything else implies stereo. The X-Mystique is the only card that can do dolby encoding in realtime. The erstwhile soundstorm did the same as well.apollyon said:^^arre read it in a post at some forum where the user tried tonnz of 3.5mm jack to rca/coax cables, none worked...just 2 spks n woofer work
