This concerns two good soundcards;
A Trust 512DX (Created for/with the 5.1 Surround set that I use) and a Soundblaster Live! Digital 5.1.
The Trust 512DX is only capable of 17 channels, I am not too certain about the Soundblaster Live! Digital 5.1.
Both are from post-2001.
What would you install? Since most soundcards seem to be compatible with the Soundblaster standard, should I even bother using a non-Soundblaster audio card?
On the side;
What kind of sounds should emanate from a 5.1 Surround middle speaker? It does not seem to make any sound at all, even when I disconnect all the other speakers.
The whole 5.1 idea is a bit vague to me as well, the front speakers are always louder and I never get the feeling that there is 'something' happening behind me. Most likely because I dance all over the screen in any sort of game, but still, aren't I supposed to feel like I'm really there?
