Hi,
I just bought an Xonar DS which I want to connect to my Creative 2800 Digital speakers. It works on Analog but not on the SPDIF port (speakers and card both have analog and digital input/output).
1- should I bother trying to make it work on digital? Am I going to notice much of a difference?
2- The Creative speakers come with an RCA male (connected to the speakers) and an RCA male to mono mini jack converter (connected to the Xonar SPDIF port). In the Xonar Audio Center I tick SPDIF out. I've tried different options to no avail. The default playback device is set to Speakers and not Digital Output (in Vista x64) as suggested on the Asus forum. I am running the original drivers that shipped with the card (no updates available on Asus website).
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks
