I am somewhat confused about Dolby Digital and what you need in order to have it.
If you have a C-media CMI8788 based sound card that has dolby "decoding" and 5.1 speakers does that mean you can listen to Dolby Digital sound with any 5.1 speakers? And with any 5.1 speakers will it play the sound in a surround sound manner?
Or do you need special 5.1 speakers with a digital decoder attached to them along with a sound card that has the digital decoding?
Thanks for any info.
