Hello all,
I am planning to convert my Blu-Ray players 5.1 speaker system from the Blu-Ray player and use them on a Media PC I plan on building for my Home Theater. The current Blu-Ray player system is the Panasonic SC-BT200, which includes:
The Subwoofer is the only exception to these 5 with it being hard wired into the speaker itself. The other end of these wires that connects to the Blu-Ray are as far as I know specifically made for the Blu-Ray player.
The plan is to fit a 5.1 sound card into the Media PC and connect these speakers to it. For the 5 speakers i will purchase 3.5mm audio jack to Open End wires,
and the Subwoofer will need to be rewired to a 3.5mm audio jack.
The sound card i am looking at using is the Asus Xonar DG 5.1 Channel PCI Sound Card.

But I have noticed that the sound card only has four 3.5mm audio inputs meaning that I will also need to split this audio input to two separate inputs (one for left & one for right)
so that I can use the front left and right and back left and right speakers to their full functionality.
Does anyone see and potential issues to this planned setup?
Thanks in advance!
