Audio Options-Which one should I use?

Well I bit the bullet and got the Klipsch GMX D5.1 for 30 bucks a mon for 6 months. The question is, how do I connect them? I can use the digital coax out from my motherbaord (Asus K8V) or I can use the analog out from my sound card (Chaintech AV710), or I can use optical out on my soundcard, but then I need an optical switcher, since the Klipsch has one optical input, which I will use for my Xbox.

Thanks.
 
not anymore 🙂

I don't think you'd notice much of a difference in quality with the analog output, but if you do have a soundcard, use that to save some clock cycles.
 
thank you for actually voting!!!there wouldn't be a difference in sound quality from optical (soundcard) & analog (soundcard)? once again thanks for posting as well.
