Sound card questions

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

I got a CREATIVE SOUND BLASTER 5.1 and a 5+1 creative speaker set. I also have a superlux Hd681. I use both speakers and headphones.

 

my card a has orange/green/black jacks for 5+1, and a blue jack.

 

 

 

Q1- Since bass and center goes over the orange and left/right sounds goes over the green, does this means pluggin headphones to green will lead to a lack of certain tones? Do need extra configuration to make sure card knows its a headphone?

 

Q2- Can the blue jack used for headphone? I'm guessing its a recording jack, but not sure

 

Q3- my speakers have an headphone out jack on them, will using this will cause any notable audio loose?(keeping in my amp isn't necessary)

 

My speakers are;

Creative Inspire T5400
Manufacturer's Specifications
Low-range amp power 22W
Satellite amp power 4 x 8W
Center channel amp power 20W
Frequency response 40Hz - 20kHz
Line input control
Front speaker size 95mm X 197mm X 95mm
Rear speaker size 95mm x 166mm x 95mm
Subwoofer size 170mm X 285mm X 240mm

When switching between headphones and speakers on the green jack, you will need to switch setting in the Creative control panel.
