Currently im using a creative audigy 2 ZS with a set of logitech z5300s
However im gradually getting an urge to upgrade, its fairly obvious im getting screwed over with vista and creative since they refuse to release some decent drivers with CMS and all the other 5.1 controls i enjoy with xp. I also feel my 5300s are aging a little bit.
So with that in mind, what is my best decision to upgrade to, i could probably spare around top end £400 for a nice decent speaker/ sound card setup.
I ideally want 5.1 im willing to stick with this sound card for a bit whatever would be best.
Anyway :-
Can some people suggest me a nice 5.1 (speaker / sub/ amp) setup with a potential new soundcard, it doesn't need to be all in one, im willing to buy things like amps and stuff i just need suggestions of the best route to take. Around £400 budget. I will be using this for mainly music and movies, also games but not as much, optical connections would be nice ( for my 360 ) but not necessary!
