Hi, I am in the process of getting one of the newly released PowerMacs, and I've started researching the possibilities of surround sound under OS X. I am in doubt as to wether I can continue to use the speaker setup I have now.
I will appreciate any links/suggestions as to what I need to do in order to hook up my setup on my PowerMac. Currently, the setup is a 5.1 System from Cambridge Soundworks, and as far as I can tell it can decode AC-3 digital audio. Is it possible for me to keep this? What PCI cards/companies exist that can help add surround sound to my PowerMac? I have tried researching this on the net, but have been frustrated in my attempts.  Dan |

I was just looking at an Emagic audio interface that works on macs and offers 6 outputs and 2 inputs. It claims that you can use the 6 outputs to setup a surround sound system but I guess it doesn't support OSX just yet. It sounded as though they were working on making OSX drivers though. It is reasonably priced to at $300. For more info... goto www.emagic.de or look it up under Emagic at Samash.com. You will have to decide according to your inputs and outputs whether your current sound system will work with it or not.
