5.1 Audio out on Asus G-50VT X6

[coolcatric]

Hi Fellas,



Before i mention my doubts in this thread, want to make 1 thing very clear. Me not very technically sound w.r.to Digital in/ Coxial / Dts / Dxx etc etc. Tried understanding the same but no luck. Anyways,



My question is simple - I need 5.1 Audio out from my Asus G-50VT x6.



Current Infra -



1. Bravia with HDMI in

2. Laptop with HDMI out

3. Intex 6800 audio system with 6 RCA in & 6 RCA out for center, woofer, rear & front.



Currently what i do is, i connect my Laptop with LCD thru HDMI ( So i get 1080p on LCD )



For audio i use Headphone jack of laptop and connect it to my speaker amp & get Stereo out.





Now, i dont want to invest much, need a solution. After googling, few answers tht came forward were -



1. Buy a USB to 5.1 sound card

2. Buy a DVD player with USB & 5.1 out.





Please suggest, need your expert advice mates.



Thanks a ton. !
