Question by Swa Sdada: Is there any way to convert a 5:1 surround sound system to plug into an earphone slot?
I have recently brought a 5:1 surround sound speakers system but have found that I need a sound card for my PC and cannot plug it directly into my ipod or laptop. Is there any way to convert the 5outputs into a simple earphone jack?
If so where would I get one? Thank you

if you are trying to take the output from your computer and put it into the 5.1 home theater it shouldnt be a problem. you will only get two channels of audio but your 5.1 system should be able to sepearate the audio out to all of the speakers. you will need to get a 1/8 inch to RCA audio adaptor.
the earphone jack on your computer is just a powered out jack. so there is no problem with using this to plug into your stereo.
