    I've been looking at that, and it seems like it only has one audio port, just like my notebook, i need at least 3. Are you sure this would work?

    It states that it works with 5.1 & 7.1 speaker systems, and it looks like it has some type of cable interface for the speaker connections. The cable adapter for 5.1 & 7.1 isn't shown. The two other ports are for headphones and mic. It should work just fine.
