Xbox And 5.1 Speakers
« on: December 08, 2007, 05:28:00 PM »

Easy solution is no, best you're getting is stereo over all channels. You can buy RCA Audio to 1/8 inch mini jack converters for pretty cheap, got mine free with my PC 5.1 system. Which is still good, I love that setup :-). If you want *true* 5.1 digital from your xbox, you'll have to get a soundcard in your PC that supports some kind of digital in, like the Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro if you want to put down $250 on it. But for that money you could get a new set of PC speakers that already has optical in, so...

I don't think its possible to split the digital audio signal of the Xbox into 3 mini jack pins, I haven't even seen a conversion to digital 1/8 pin.
