does the acer aspire 5583 support 5.1 audio output? ( realtek hd audio)
-
You can make sure by looking at the specs; but if it doesn’t have 3 audio jacks or a SPDIF output then the answer is NO.
-
i am unable to find the spec's for my laptop. it has only 1 audio output jack but it has spdif written there
-
I don't think so.
ACER 5583 Review -
i have seen a guy connect a 5.1 to a laptop by putting a jack splitter in the audio jack and then connecting 1 in each of them, if i do that will i get the surround effect in 5.1 movies or will the same thing play on all
-
I'm definitely not an expert but I think the same thing will play on all speakers. You can try it yourself these jacks splitters are very cheap.

i havent bought speakers yet..

Realtek HD Audio sux big time. You'll be better off buying an external 5.1 sound card. And I don't think it supports 5.1 natively (at least in XP).
I had a cheap 5.1 USB adapter which burnt out when I connected to my home theater system. I'm using the USB iMic (3.1), and the sound quality is 10x better than what I get from the 3.5mm jack in front of the notebook. -
i tried out m4500 and sbs 300 on my normal card. m4500 sounded very very bad and sbs 300 sounded better. i guess sbs 300 is enough cause my hostel room is 10x10

I agree with Andy, external(usb/expresscard) soundcard FTW. Realtek is just for basic sound. Also, their drivers used to be verry buggy don't know if they fixed it.
