Hey, thanks for the reply.
Yea the reason i am lookin at usb sound cards is that I have recently bought a macbook and would like to use it as a media centre in my living room with my projector and 5.1 surround setup.
The main input requirements are front rear and centre component outputs so that i can plug it to the multichannel inputs on the AV amp i have. I think the Audigy usb sound card has these outputs, so perhaps this is the one to go for?
Cheers

Hey again,
I've come to realise (with my desktop machine and my av amp) that outputting 5.1 to is not as easy as you might think. I asked about this in an earlier post - http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=17643346 if your interested in reading it. In the end I bought a home cinema cable off the creative website which I finally managed to get me to out 5.1 properly!
This is why I wanted an external soundcard with the outputted i stated.
Cheers
