Realtek HD Audio No 5.1 option

[Dinesh0019]

Hello
My PC Lenovo flex 2-14 Realtek audio manager donot have 5.1 speaker configuration.
Details of Realtek-
Version 6.0.1.7535
DirectX 12.0
HD audio
ALC233
There is also dolby sound software installed too.
I think because of this left rear & right rear surround speakers have very poor sound quality.Am i thinking right??
Is there any way to get stereo 5.1 surround sound from rear speakers too.
My 5.1 speakers has 2 male RCA aux input ports with single input 3.5mm jack.My PC has a single input 3.5mm jack.
Herez a link to them-

Your laptop cannot drive a 5.1 speaker set as the integrated sound chip is stereo only (hence only two built-in speakers). The audio-out jack on the laptop is also stereo only so only a 2 or 2.1 external speaker set is compatible.

Your 5.1 speaker system is for a desktop PC which has a 5.1 sound card.

However, you can buy an external 5.1 sound card for a laptop if you want to go down that route. Example here:

But that rather defeats the purpose of a laptop being portable & usable anywhere.
