    Hello, all.

    So, I have a few questions regarding m1330 sound. I have the Sound Blaster software (erm) enhancement, which does put out nice sound through the headphone jack. However, I would like to go to at least 5.1 surround sound, if not more. Does anyone know if the m1330 headphone jacks are also optical outputs? Has anyone tried any third-party solution, whether the Creative X-Fi, the Turtle Bay Amigo or SRM, or the M-Audio Transport?

    Suggestions and opinions welcome.


    Thanks,

    GRPCV

    Thanks for that, Chelet. I know the Turtle Bay does include 5.1 (and I think 7.1 and maybe more), with all relevant accessories.
